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 graph.

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 graph.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point (0, 0) where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

Front

How do you plot the point (2, 8) on a graph?

Back

Start at the origin (0, 0), move 2 units to the right (x-axis), and then move 8 units up (y-axis).

Front

What is the coordinate of the point located 6 units right and 6 units up from the origin?

Back

The coordinate is (6, 6).

Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a graph where the y-coordinate is 0.

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line on a graph where the x-coordinate is 0.

Front

If a point is located at (8, 5), what is its x-coordinate?

Back

The x-coordinate is 8.

Front

If a point is located at (8, 5), what is its y-coordinate?

Back

The y-coordinate is 5.
