The vertical axis is called the x-axis and the horizontal axis is called the y-axis what entire plane containing these is called the xy-plane?
legends a plane would be called the xy-plane if it had the x and y points on it Y axis
The x-axis and the y-axis divide a coordinate plane into four?
Quadrants.
What is the Definition of Cartesian coordinate system?
A system for identifying points on a plane or in space by their coordinates is called a Cartesian coordinate system.In a plane (2-dimensional), the Cartesian coordinate system is determined by the two perpendicular directed lines Ox as x-axis, and Oy as y-axis (where the point of intersection O is the origin) and the given unit length.For any point P in the plane, let M and Nbe points on the x-axis and y-axis such that PM is parallel to y-axis and PN is parallel to x-axis. If OM = x and ON = y, then (x, y) are the coordinates of the point P in this Cartesian coordinate system.Normally, Ox and Oy are chosen so that an an anticlockwise rotation of one right angle takes the positive x-direction to the positive y-direction.In 3-dimensional space, the Cartesian coordinate system is determined by the three mutually perpendicular directed lines Ox as x-axis, and Oy as y-axis,and OZ as z-axis (where the point of intersection O is the origin).For any point P in a space, let L be the point where the plane through P, parallel to the plane containing the y-axis and z-axis, meets the x-axis. Alternatively, L is the point on the x-axis such that PL is perpendicular to the x-axis. Let M and N be points on the y-axis and z-axis. The points L, M, and N are in fact three of vertixes of the cuboid with three of its edges along the coordinate axes and with O and P as opposite vertixes. If OL = x and OM = y, and ON = z, then (x, y, z) are the coordinates of the point P in this Cartesian coordinate system.
In the ordered pair x and y the x is called the origin?
No, the origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis meet in the coordinate plane. The x value of an ordered pair is called the abscissa (the y value is called the ordinate).
This is one of four sections formed by the intersection of the x-axis and y-axis on a Cartesian coordinate plane?
Quadrant.

False
Y axis and x axis plane?
x axis is on horizontal plane and y axis is on vertical plane.
Where is the X axis and the Y axis in a coordinate plane?
The x axis is horizontal and the y axis is vertical.
What are x-axis and y-axis?
In the coordinate plane, the x-axis is horizontal, and the y-axis is vertical.
Where the x and y axis cross in a coordinate plane?
The x and y axis cross at (0,0) on the coordinate plane.
How do you remember the x axis and the y axis?
X has two lines that cross. Think of a-cross. X axis is horizontal on a coordinate plane. Y has a vertical line... the Y axis is the vertical on a coordinate plane.
Where do th x-axis and y-axis meet on a coordinate plane?
The X-axis and the Y-axis meet at the origin
Is x or y independent?
x is independent because of the x axis and y axis on a coordinate plane.
What does the x and y axis on a coordinate plane look like?
the y-axis is vertical, and the x- axis is horizontal
What are the two coordinate plane letters?
The two letters for a 2-dimensional plane are X and Y. Each one is known as an axis, therefore being the X axis and the Y axis. The X axis is the horizontal dimension and the Y axis is the vertical dimension.
What does axis mean reffering to the x and y axis?
They refer to the horizontal x axis and the vertical y axis that are perpendicular to each other on the Cartesian plane
