Working or acting together. The word comes from "co" meaning together, and "ordinate" which means "direction". The implication is that the parts are going in the same direction together.

The idea is to divide (difference in y-coordinates) by (difference in x-coordinates). If you mean points of (-5, 4) and (15, -4) then the slope works out as -2/5
You plot both coordinates together.
coordinate grids are used for coordinates, coordinate grid is used for the coordinates so you know where you can place your coordinate on.
A graph with x and y coordinates has 4 quadrants, so would be a 4 quadrant graph.
When some generalized coordinates, say q,do not occur explicitly in the expression of Lagrangian, then those coordinates are called Cyclic coordinate.
