Graphing Ordered Pairs

Front

What does the first number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The first number represents the x-axis.

Front

Which axis is represented by the second number in an ordered pair?

Back

The second number represents the y-axis.

Front

What is the orientation of the x-axis?

Back

The x-axis is horizontal.

Front

What is the orientation of the y-axis?

Back

The y-axis is vertical.

Front

What is the ordered pair for the point located at (0, 2)?

Back

The ordered pair is (0, 2).

Front

What is the ordered pair for point E if it is located at (5, 2)?

Back

The ordered pair for point E is (5, 2).

Front

How do you plot the point (3, 4) on a graph?

Back

Start at the origin (0, 0), move 3 units right (x-axis), and then 4 units up (y-axis).

Front

What is the significance of the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point (0, 0) where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

Front

How do you identify the coordinates of a point on a graph?

Back

The coordinates are identified as (x, y), where x is the horizontal position and y is the vertical position.

Front

What is the relationship between ordered pairs and points on a graph?

Back

Ordered pairs represent the coordinates of points on a graph.
