Show answers and working
  1. 1. First quadrant

    x is positive, y is positive. Quadrants go anticlockwise from top-right.

  2. 2. Second quadrant

    x is negative, y is positive. Quadrants go anticlockwise from top-right.

  3. 3. Fourth quadrant

    x is positive, y is negative. Quadrants go anticlockwise from top-right.

  4. 4. Second quadrant

    x is negative, y is positive. Quadrants go anticlockwise from top-right.

  5. 5. (-1, -1)

    Average the x values: (-2 + 0) ÷ 2 = -1. Average the y values: (3 + -5) ÷ 2 = -1.

  6. 6. (-3, -3)

    Average the x values: (-5 + -1) ÷ 2 = -3. Average the y values: (1 + -7) ÷ 2 = -3.

  7. 7. (-3, 4)

    Average the x values: (-5 + -1) ÷ 2 = -3. Average the y values: (0 + 8) ÷ 2 = 4.

  8. 8. (2, -10)

    Average the x values: (-2 + 6) ÷ 2 = 2. Average the y values: (-6 + -14) ÷ 2 = -10.

  9. 9. y = -0.75x − 6.25

    Gradient m = (-10 − -4) / (5 − -3) = -0.75. Substitute (-3, -4): c = -4 − -0.75 × (-3) = -6.25.

  10. 10. y = 1.33x + 6.33

    Gradient m = (13 − 5) / (5 − -1) = 1.33. Substitute (-1, 5): c = 5 − 1.33 × (-1) = 6.33.

  11. 11. y = -0.4x − 2.4

    Gradient m = (-4 − 0) / (4 − -6) = -0.4. Substitute (-6, 0): c = 0 − -0.4 × (-6) = -2.4.

  12. 12. y = -4x + 23

    Gradient m = (-5 − 3) / (7 − 5) = -4. Substitute (5, 3): c = 3 − -4 × 5 = 23.

Common mistakes

What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.

  • Plots (y, x) instead of (x, y).

    Correction: Along the corridor, then up the stairs.

  • Calculates gradient as run over rise.

    Correction: Gradient = change in y ÷ change in x.
