How does this quiz work?

Read each question, choose one answer among A, B, C and D, then check it: a short explanation appears after every answer. Your score out of 10 is shown at the end, and you can restart the quiz as often as you like.

What should you review before the quiz?

Reread the key facts of the lesson and the worked example. If a question is hard, go back to the matching part of the lesson, then try the quiz again. Write your work on scrap paper: most mistakes come from skipping a step, not from the idea itself.

Remember:

The x-axis is horizontal, the y-axis is vertical, and they cross at the origin (0, 0).
In an ordered pair (x, y), the first number tells how far right and the second how far up.
The order matters: (3, 5) and (5, 3) are different points.
Points on the x-axis have y = 0, and points on the y-axis have x = 0.
Graphing real-world data pairs lets you read distances and meanings from the picture.
