Coordinates

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

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

Front

What does the x-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The x-coordinate represents the horizontal position of a point on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the y-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The y-coordinate represents the vertical position of a point on the coordinate plane.

Front

In the ordered pair (3, 5), what is the x-coordinate?

Back

3

Front

In the ordered pair (3, 5), what is the y-coordinate?

Back

5

Front

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

Back

To identify the coordinates, find the point's position by counting how far it is from the origin (0,0) along the x-axis and y-axis.

Front

What are the coordinates of point B if it is located 2 units right and 3 units up from the origin?

Back

(2, 3)

Front

What are the coordinates of point C if it is located 4 units left and 1 unit down from the origin?

Back

(-4, -1)

Front

If a point has coordinates (0, 5), where is it located?

Back

It is located on the y-axis, 5 units above the origin.

Front

If a point has coordinates (5, 0), where is it located?

Back

It is located on the x-axis, 5 units to the right of the origin.
