5th Grade Graphing on the Coordinate Plane Quiz: 10 Questions with Explanations

A \((6,4)\)B \((4,6)\)C \((4,4)\)D \((6,6)\)

Move 4 units right and 6 units up, so M is at \((4,6)\). Reversing the numbers gives \((6,4)\).

A 3B 11C 5D 8

The first number in an ordered pair is the x-coordinate, so it is 8.

A \((5,0)\)B \((5,5)\)C \((0,0)\)D \((0,5)\)

N is on the y-axis, 0 units right and 5 units up, so it is \((0,5)\).

A \((3,7)\)B \((8,2)\)C \((3,10)\)D \((5,2)\)

Moving up changes the y-coordinate: \(2 + 5 = 7\). The x-coordinate stays 3.

A 13 unitsB 8 unitsC 7 unitsD 5 units

The x-coordinates match, so subtract the y-coordinates: \(10 – 3 = 7\). Adding gives 13.

A $12B $10C $15D $9

The points go up $3 each hour: 3, 6, 9, so 4 hours give $12.

A \((0,4)\)B \((4,4)\)C \((4,0)\)D \((1,1)\)

A point on the x-axis has a y-coordinate of 0, so \((4,0)\) is on the x-axis.

A \((2,6)\)B \((6,2)\)C \((2,2)\)D \((0,6)\)

The x-coordinate (right) comes first: \((2,6)\).

A 7 blocksB 5 blocksC 9 blocksD 2 blocks

Both points have y-coordinate 5, so subtract the x-coordinates: \(7 – 2 = 5\). Adding gives 9.

A They are the same point.B They are two different points.C Both are on the x-axis.D Both are on the y-axis.

\((5,1)\) is 5 right and 1 up. \((1,5)\) is 1 right and 5 up. The order of the numbers matters.
