What are the coordinates of point L?
A graph is shown in the xy-plane. The values on the x-axis ranges from negative 8 to 8 in increments of 2 and the values on the y-axis ranges from negative 8 to 8 in increments of 2. Four points Upper L, Upper M, Upper N, and Upper O are marked on the graph. The point Upper L is 3 units below the x-axis and 1 unit to the right of the y-axis. The point Upper M is 2 units above the x-axis and 6 units to the right of the y-axis. The point Upper N is 4 units above the x-axis and 3 units to the left of the y-axis. The point Upper O is on the x-axis and 5 units to the left of the y-axis.
A.(−5,0)
B. (6,2)
C. (1,−3)
D. (−3,4)
The coordinates of point L are (1,-3).
We know that point L is 3 units below the x-axis, so its y-coordinate is -3. We also know that L is 1 unit to the right of the y-axis, so its x-coordinate is 1.
Therefore, the answer is option C, (1,-3).
Julianna is making a rectangular garden in her backyard. She has plotted three of the corners on the coordinate plane.
A graph is shown in the xy-plane. The values on the x-axis ranges from negative 8 to 8 in increments of 2 and the values on the y-axis ranges from negative 8 to 8 in increments of 2. Three points are marked on the graph whose coordinates are (negative 2, negative 8), (negative 2, 5), and (5, 5). A. Find the coordinates of the last corner of the garden.
B. Determine the length and width of the garden using absolute value.
C. Julianna bought 45 feet of fencing to go around the edge of the garden. If each unit in the coordinate plane represents 1 foot, does Julianna have enough fencing for the garden? Be sure to explain your answer.
