What is a coordinate plane?

Back

A coordinate plane is a two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis).

What does an ordered pair represent?

Back

An ordered pair, written as (x, y), represents a specific point on the coordinate plane, where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.
