A pair of two points (2D) or 3 points (3D) written as (x,y) or (x,y,z).
Equations are used to graph points on the Cartesian Co-ordinate graph. The points are listed as x=? and y=?.
Cartesian coordinate system
What it looks like: The cartesian coordinate plane is a virtical line (the y axis) running through a horizontal line (the x axis). It forms a cross which divides the grid that it's placed on into four quadrants. The quadrants are labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4, in counter clockwise direction, starting in the upper right corner. The point where the x and y axis meet, (0,0) is called the origin. You can graph points on the line by counting the amount f points in the first number of the coordinate (x) on the x axis, and then the second on the y. for example the coordinate (1,2) would be one space to the right and two up.

both x and y coordinates *apex*
They are the coordinates of x and y to plot out straight lines or curves on the Cartesian plane
Coordinants. If you're looking for an answer with 12 letters good luck..
It describes points on a plane.
Cartesian coordinate system
cartesian coordinate isn't a system. the graphs you put on the cartesian coordinate plane can be systems. these graphs can be anything you want them to be. and they are calculate different every time. the thing to remember about cartesian coordinate planes is the you plot the points of (x,y)
Cartesian Coordinate System
cartesian coordinate system
It is the straight line equation that can be used to locate coordinates of x and y on the Cartesian plane
Cartesian coordinate system
Points located in the first quadrant of a Cartesian coordinate system have both coordinates ('x' and 'y') positive, i.e. equal to or greater than zero.
Why are two numbers necessary to locate points on a coordinate plane?
points of co-ordinates plane are represent by cartesian
René Descartes If you recall this system is called the Cartesian Coordinate system.
