1. The problem is to find the location of the point with coordinates $(2,3)$ on the Cartesian coordinate plane.
2. The Cartesian plane consists of two perpendicular number lines: the horizontal axis called the $x$-axis and the vertical axis called the $y$-axis.
3. The point $(2,3)$ means that the $x$-coordinate is $2$ and the $y$-coordinate is $3$.
4. To locate the point, start at the origin $(0,0)$ where the $x$-axis and $y$-axis intersect.
5. Move $2$ units to the right along the $x$-axis because the $x$-coordinate is positive $2$.
6. From there, move $3$ units up along the $y$-axis because the $y$-coordinate is positive $3$.
7. The point you reach after these movements is the point $(2,3)$ on the plane.
This is how you find the location of the point $(2,3)$ on the Cartesian coordinate plane.
