Question

How far is the point described by the ordered pair (4,5)
from the x axis?​

Answer 1

The point is 4 units away from the x-axis.

Explanation:

The given ordered pair is (4, 5).

Remember, in a ordered pair, the first number is about the number of units used horizontally, and the second number is about the number of units used vertically.

So, this point is 4 units right side of the origin and 5 units upside of the origin.

Therefore, the point is 4 units away from the x-axis.
