Ordered Pairs Test

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 first number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

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

Front

What does the second number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

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

Front

What are the coordinates of the origin on a coordinate plane?

Back

The coordinates of the origin are (0, 0).

Front

Which axis is vertical on a coordinate plane?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical axis on a coordinate plane.

Front

Which axis is horizontal on a coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal axis on a coordinate plane.

Front

What are the coordinates of a point on the x-axis?

Back

A point on the x-axis has coordinates of the form (x, 0).

Front

What are the coordinates of a point on the y-axis?

Back

A point on the y-axis has coordinates of the form (0, y).

Front

If a point is located at (3, 2), what is its x-coordinate?

Back

The x-coordinate is 3.

Front

If a point is located at (3, 2), what is its y-coordinate?

Back

The y-coordinate is 2.
