1. The problem is to show points on a Cartesian plane. 2. A Cartesian plane consists of two perpendicular number lines: the x-axis (horizontal) and the y-axis (vertical). 3. Each point is represented as an ordered pair $(x,y)$ where $x$ is the horizontal coordinate and $y$ is the vertical coordinate. 4. To plot a point, start at the origin $(0,0)$, move $x$ units along the x-axis, then move $y$ units parallel to the y-axis. 5. Since no specific points were given, the general method is explained here for any points.
