What is a coordinate grid?

Back

A coordinate grid is a two-dimensional plane formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis). It is used to locate points using ordered pairs.

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on a coordinate grid, written in the form (x, y), where x is the horizontal position and y is the vertical position.

How do you identify a point on a coordinate grid?

Back

To identify a point, you use its ordered pair (x, y). Start at the origin (0, 0), move x units along the x-axis, and then y units up or down along the y-axis.

What is the origin in a coordinate grid?

Back

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