Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on a coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y).

Front

What does the x-axis represent?

Back

The x-axis represents the horizontal line in a coordinate plane where the y-coordinate is zero.

Front

What does the y-axis represent?

Back

The y-axis represents the vertical line in a coordinate plane where the x-coordinate is zero.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What is the significance of the first number in an ordered pair?

Back

The first number represents the x-coordinate, indicating the horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the significance of the second number in an ordered pair?

Back

The second number represents the y-coordinate, indicating the vertical position on the coordinate plane.
