Question

Plot each point on graph paper.

$E(-3,1)$.

Short answer

The graph of the pointis$E(-3,1)$ :

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Define coordinate of a point.

Coordinate $(x,y)$of a point is an ordered pair of numbers; that is, a number on the x-axis called anx-coordinate, and a number on they-axis called ay-coordinate.

Step 2. State the steps to plot the coordinates.

Steps to plot the coordinates are:

• Move to negativex axis by 3 units as value ofx is $-3$.
• Then move in positivey direction by 1 unit as value ofy is 1.

Step 3. Plot the coordinates.

The plot of the coordinate is shown below :
