Understanding Ordered Pairs and Coordinate Plane

The video tutorial introduces the concept of graphing ordered pairs on a coordinate plane, focusing on quadrant one. It explains the structure of the coordinate plane, including the x and y axes and the origin. The tutorial provides step-by-step instructions on plotting points, using examples with whole numbers, decimals, and fractions. It concludes with practice problems for students to solve independently.
