A Cartesian coordinate plane system specifies each point uniquely in a plane by a pair of numerical coordinates. These coordinates are the signed distances from the point to two fixed perpendicular directed lines often called the x and y axis. The measurements on the axes are same units of length.
The use of x and y to name is axes is common, but there are many other ways to name them.

The coordinate plane is sometimes call the Cartesian plane because Rene Descartes is often credited with inventing the coordinate plane and so the coordinate plane is sometimes called the Cartesian plane,in his honor.
The cartesian coordinates are plotted on the cartesian plane
A Cartesian coordinate system is a coordinate system that specifies each point uniquely in a plane by a pair of numerical coordinates. These coordinate system can be used to provide geometric interpretations for many branches of mathematics.
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)
