Secondary 1 Mathematics Quiz - Graphs Coordinate Geometry (Answer Key)

Total Marks: 40
Topic: Graphs & Coordinate Geometry (Sec 1 N6)

---

Section A (1 mark each)

1. $(4, 3)$
Teaching note: Moving right = positive x, up = positive y from origin $(0,0)$.

2. $-2$
Teaching note: Coordinates are $(x,y)$; x-coordinate is first number.

3. Quadrant III (or 3)
Teaching note: Both coordinates negative → bottom-left quadrant.

4. Point at $x=2, y=-1$ plotted on grid.
Marking: 1 mark for correct position.
Visual: Grid Q4-fig1 must show axes -5 to 5; point in quadrant IV.

5. $2$
Teaching note: In $y = ax+b$, $a$ is gradient.

6. $3$
Working: gradient = $(3-0)/(1-0)=3$.

7. $4$
Teaching note: y-intercept is $b$ in $y=ax+b$, point $(0,4)$.

8. y-axis
Teaching note: x-coordinate 0 → on y-axis.

9. $y = -2$
Teaching note: Horizontal line has equation $y = c$.

10. $1$
Teaching note: Vertical line through $x=1$ → all points have x=1.

---

Section B (2 marks each)

11. Shape: rectangle (or square is wrong; sides 2 and 3)
Working: Plot points → opposite sides equal, right angles.
Marking: 1 mark plot, 1 mark name.

12. Gradient = $2$
Working: $m = (7-3)/(4-2) = 4/2 = 2$.
Common mistake: subtract in wrong order.

13. $y = 3x - 1$
Working: through $(0,-1)$ → b = -1, m=3 → $y=3x-1$.

14. $A(2.5, 0)$
Working: set $y=0$: $0=-2x+5 → 2x=5 → x=2.5$.

15. Table:

$x$	0	2	4
$y$	2	4	6
Working: $y=x+2$ substitution.

16. Graph drawn through points $(0,-1),(1,1),(2,3),(3,5)$.
Marking: 2 marks for straight line correct.

Section C (3 marks each)

17.
(a) Gradient = $(8-2)/(4-1)=6/3=2$ [1]

(c) y-intercept = $0$ [1]

18.
(a) Triangle plotted [1]
(b) $DE = 4-0 = 4$ units [1]
(c) $DF = 3-0 = 3$ units [1]

19.
(a) $y=3(2)+4=10$ dollars [1]
(b) Gradient = $3$, represents cost per km [1]
(c) y-intercept = $4$, represents base fare [1]

20.
(a) $m=(5-1)/(2-0)=4/2=2$ [1]
(b) $y=2x+1$ (through $(0,1)$) [1]
(c) $x=5 → y=2(5)+1=11$ [1]
