it's going to look like this.

$$$

the coordinates are in (x,y) format.

you start from the origin, which is the point (0,0).

you go left or right the number of units for the x coordinate.

you go up or down the number of units for the y coordinate.

for example:

the point (7,1) is 7 units to the right and 1 unit up from the origin.

the point (-2,6) is 2 units to the leftand 6 units up from the origin.

for the x-value, you draw an imaginary vertical line from the x-coordinate value on the x-axis.

for the y-value, you draw an imaginary horizontal line from the y-coordinate value on the y-axis.

the intersection of the vertical line and the horizontal line is the coordinate point.

for example, the points (7,1) and (-2,6) have their imaginary vertical and hotizontal lines shown on the following graphs.
