Graphing Ordered Pairs on a Coordinate Plane

Mr. Nazarian introduces the concept of graphing ordered pairs on a coordinate plane, focusing on understanding the x-axis and y-axis. The lesson covers how to interpret ordered pairs and graph them accurately, using examples to illustrate the process. The video aims to help fifth-grade students grasp the basics of coordinate geometry, emphasizing the order of x and y in pairs and providing practical examples for clarity.

What is a coordinate plane commonly used for?

• Measuring distances

• Writing equations

• Finding specific locations

• Drawing shapes

Which axis runs horizontally on a coordinate plane?

• W-axis

• X-axis

• Y-axis

• Z-axis

In an ordered pair, which coordinate is listed first?

• X-coordinate

• W-coordinate

• Z-coordinate

• Y-coordinate

If an ordered pair is (3, 6), how many units do you move along the x-axis?

• 9 units

• 3 units

• 6 units

• 0 units

For the ordered pair (7, 2), how many units do you move up along the y-axis?

• 7 units

• 9 units

• 2 units

• 5 units

What is the ordered pair for a point located 8 units to the right and 4 units up?

• (4, 8)

• (4, 4)

• (8, 4)

• (8, 8)

How do you remember the order of coordinates in an ordered pair?

• Run before you jump

• Jump before you run

• Walk before you fly

• Fly before you walk

What does the first number in an ordered pair represent?

• W-axis

• Z-axis

• Y-axis

• X-axis

If the ordered pair is (4, 8), how many units do you move along the x-axis?

• 12 units

• 0 units

• 8 units

• 4 units

How does the order of numbers in an ordered pair affect its location?

• It only affects the x-coordinate

• It only affects the y-coordinate

• It determines the exact position on the plane

• It doesn't affect the location
