Coordinate Pairs

Front

What are coordinate pairs?

Back

Coordinate pairs are a set of two numbers used to determine the position of a point on a coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y).

Front

What does the first number in a coordinate pair represent?

Back

The first number in a coordinate pair represents the x-coordinate, which indicates the horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the second number in a coordinate pair represent?

Back

The second number in a coordinate pair represents the y-coordinate, which indicates the vertical position on the coordinate plane.

Front

How do you write an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is written in the form (x, y), where x is the x-coordinate and y is the y-coordinate.

Front

What are the coordinates of point A if it is located at (1,1)?

Back

The coordinates of point A are (1, 1).

Front

What are the coordinates of point C if it is located at (4,3)?

Back

The coordinates of point C are (4, 3).

Front

Which axis runs vertically (up and down)?

Back

The y-axis runs vertically (up and down).

Front

Which axis runs horizontally (left and right)?

Back

The x-axis runs horizontally (left and right).

Front

If a point has coordinates (0, 1 3/4), what is its y-coordinate?

Back

The y-coordinate is 1 3/4.

Front

If a point has coordinates (3, 1 1/2), what is its x-coordinate?

Back

The x-coordinate is 3.
