Meaning of Given Coordinate (no grid) (Level 4)

This topic focuses on interpreting the meaning of given coordinates in a Cartesian grid, even though no actual grid is provided. It challenges students to recognize if the numerical value of a point's coordinate corresponds to the x-axis or the y-axis, and whether it is a positive or negative value. The problems test the understanding of Cartesian coordinates, specifically identifying what a numerical value signifies in the context of points plotted on an imaginary Cartesian plane.
