Meaning of X Coordinate (no indicator) (Level 3)

This math topic focuses on interpreting the x and y coordinates on a Cartesian grid. Students are presented with various points on the grid and must determine the meaning of specific numerical values within the coordinates. Each question provides a visual representation of a point on the Cartesian grid along with multiple-choice answers aimed at identifying whether a given number refers to the x-coordinate or y-coordinate, and whether it represents a positive or negative value. This exercise is part of foundational skills associated with understanding Cartesian grid concepts.
