Question

Determine where on the coordinate plane the point (8, 0) would be located. How do you know?

Answer 1

Answer: It would only be on the x-axis, because, x comes before y in the parenthesis, (X,Y). So you would go over to the right 8, and up 0.

Answer 2

It would be located on the x axis and move over 8 spaces but don’t move up I know because 8 is on the x axis and 0 is the y axis so you move over but not up
