Question

Plotting in a rectangular coordinate system:

Plot the points (1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), and (1, 4) in a rect angular coordinate system. Fill in the blank: These points all lie on the same________ line.

Plot the points (−1, −2), (0, −2), (1, −2), and (2, −2) in a rectangular coordinate system. Fill in the blank: These points all lie on the same_________
line.

Plot the equations x = −3 and y = 5 in a rectangular coordinate system. Where do the graphs of these two equations intersect?

System that uses coordinates to uniquely determine the position of points. The most common coordinate system is the Cartesian system, where points are given by distance along a horizontal x-axis and vertical y-axis from the origin. A polar coordinate system locates a point by its direction relative to a reference direction and its distance from a given point. In three dimensions, it leads to cylindrical and spherical coordinates.
