Question

Describe how an ordered pair represents a point on a coordinate plane. Include the terms x-coordinate, y-coordinate, and origin in your answer. Please help! I know it's easy but I'm just stupid ;-;

Answer 1

When we look at an ordered pair, it will be presented as (x,y)

The first term, x (called the x-coordinate), will tell us how far we should count outwards from 0 (The Origin). The second term, y (called the y-coordinate), will tell us how far we will count outwards from our x coordinate.

I hope this helps! If you would like me to elaborate more just let me know:)
