Cartesian Grid - Meaning of X Coordinate (no grid) (Level 2)

This math topic focuses on identifying and interpreting the x and y coordinates of points on a Cartesian grid without an actual grid display. The problems are designed to enhance understanding of how coordinates define a point's position relative to the x and y axes. Each question presents a value from a point's coordinates and asks what that value signifies in the context of its position along an axis, asking students to discern between positive and negative values as well as x and y placements. This is part of a foundational unit on Cartesian grids.
