Graphing Ordered Pairs Made Easy

The video tutorial explains how to graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. It begins with an introduction to ordered pairs, emphasizing the importance of the order (X, Y). The tutorial then provides step-by-step instructions for graphing several pairs, including positive, negative, and zero values. Each example is demonstrated clearly, helping viewers understand the process of plotting points on a graph.

What is the correct format for ordered pairs?

• YXZ

• XYZ

• XY

• YX

If you have the ordered pair (2, 4), where do you plot the point on the graph?

• 2 on the Y-axis and 4 on the X-axis

• 2 on the X-axis and 4 on the Y-axis

• 4 on the Y-axis and 2 on the X-axis

• 4 on the X-axis and 2 on the Y-axis

For the ordered pair (5, 7), which axis do you move along first?

• Y-axis

• Z-axis

• X-axis

• None

How do you plot the point (0, 6) on the graph?

• Move 0 units on the Y-axis and 6 units on the X-axis

• Move 6 units on the Y-axis and 0 units on the X-axis

• Stay at the origin and move 6 units on the Y-axis

• Move 6 units on the X-axis

What is the correct way to plot the ordered pair (-4, -3)?

• Move 4 units right on the X-axis and 3 units up on the Y-axis

• Move 4 units left on the X-axis and 3 units down on the Y-axis

• Move 4 units right on the X-axis and 3 units down on the Y-axis

• Move 4 units left on the X-axis and 3 units up on the Y-axis

When plotting the point (9, -2), which direction do you move on the Y-axis?

• Down

• Left

• Up

• Right

What is the X-coordinate of the ordered pair (9, -2)?

• 2

• 9

• -2

• 0

What is the Y-coordinate of the ordered pair (9, -2)?

• 0

• -2

• 9

• 2
