How do you identify the x-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The x-coordinate is the first number in an ordered pair (X,Y) and represents the horizontal position.

Front

How do you identify the y-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The y-coordinate is the second number in an ordered pair (X,Y) and represents the vertical position.
