Polygons in the Coordinate Plane — Unit test

Question 6 • ELPGEQ2 M/J Math 6 - 1205010 HCPS v24

Which statement is false?

Answer
A
All points with an x-value of 3 are located in Quadrant I.
B
There is only one point on the coordinate plane that is on both the x- and y-axes.
C
All points with an x-value of 0 are located on the y-axis.
D
There is only one point on the coordinate plane with an x-value of 2 and a y-value of 2.

Explanation

A point with x-value 3 lies to the right of the y-axis, but its y-value can be positive, negative, or zero. So such points can be in Quadrant I or IV, or on the x-axis; they are not all in Quadrant I. The other statements are true: the axes intersect only at the origin, x = 0 describes the y-axis, and x = 2 with y = 2 specifies the single point (2, 2).
