Exploring Ordered Pairs in Mathematics

What is the name of the chart used to represent ordered pairs?

• Bar Graph

• Coordinate Plane

• Pie Chart

• Number Line

Which axis runs horizontally on the coordinate plane?

• Y-axis

• W-axis

• Z-axis

• X-axis

In an ordered pair, which coordinate is read first?

• Y-coordinate

• Z-coordinate

• X-coordinate

• W-coordinate

What is the ordered pair for point A if it is located at 6 on the x-axis and 7 on the y-axis?

• (0, 7)

• (6, 0)

• (6, 7)

• (7, 6)

If point G is at (1, 4), how do you locate it on the coordinate plane?

• Go right 1 and up 4

• Go down 1 and left 4

• Go up 1 and right 4

• Go left 1 and down 4

What is the ordered pair for the location of the car if it is at 2 on the x-axis and 6 on the y-axis?

• (2, 6)

• (0, 6)

• (2, 0)

• (6, 2)

Why is it important to always read the x-coordinate first in an ordered pair?

• It is a convention

• It is a rule in mathematics

• It is easier to remember

• It gives the correct location
