  1. Jun plots a point with a pencil. Point Q is 1 unit to the right of the y-axis and 5 units below the x-axis. Which point is Q? Write it like (1, -8).

  2. Luz's map: library at (0, 0); west and south are negative. The bakery is 3 blocks east and 6 blocks south of the library. Where is the bakery? Write it like (1, -8).

  3. Pia reflects a star across a mirror line. Point A is at (-1, 3). Point B is the reflection of A across the x-axis. Where is B? Write it like (1, -8).

  4. Tala sticks a star at (-2, 6) on a grid. In which quadrant is the star? (Quadrant I is top right, II is top left, III is bottom left, IV is bottom right.)

    • Quadrant IV
    • Quadrant I
    • Quadrant II
    • Quadrant III

  5. Zee sticks a heart at (5, -3) on a grid. In which quadrant is the heart? (Quadrant I is top right, II is top left, III is bottom left, IV is bottom right.)

    • Quadrant IV
    • Quadrant I
    • Quadrant II
    • Quadrant III

  6. Esme marks the point (5, 0) with a crayon. Where is the point?

    • Quadrant IV
    • Quadrant I
    • On the y-axis
    • On the x-axis

  7. Jun plots point A and point B on graph paper. Point A is at (5, -3) and point B is at (-5, -3). B is a reflection of A. Which mirror takes A to B?

    • the x-axis
    • the y-axis
    • both axes, one after the other

  8. Luz plots point A at (6, -2) and point B at (-6, 2). B is A reflected across one axis or both. Which choice takes A to B?

    • both axes, one after the other
    • the x-axis
    • the y-axis

  9. Noah marks point Q on a grid. Q is 2 units to the right of the y-axis and 6 units below the x-axis. What is the y-coordinate (second number) of Q? Write just the number.

  10. Pia marks point R on a grid. R is 3 units to the left of the y-axis and 6 units below the x-axis. What is the x-coordinate (first number) of R? Write just the number.
