Review of the Coordinate plane

Front

What is the definition of an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on a coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y).

Front

What does the first number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The first number in an ordered pair represents the x-coordinate, which indicates the horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the second number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The second number in an ordered pair represents the y-coordinate, which indicates the vertical position on the coordinate plane.

Front

How do you identify the x-coordinate in the ordered pair (5, 3)?

Back

The x-coordinate is 5, which is the first number in the ordered pair.

Front

How do you identify the y-coordinate in the ordered pair (5, 3)?

Back

The y-coordinate is 3, which is the second number in the ordered pair.

Front

What is the coordinate of point A if it is located at (4, 2)?

Back

The coordinate of point A is (4, 2).

Front

Which axis is represented by the x-coordinate?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal axis on the coordinate plane.

Front

Which axis is represented by the y-coordinate?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical axis on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the ordered pair for point B located at 2 units right and 3 units up from the origin?

Back

The ordered pair for point B is (2, 3).

Front

If a point has coordinates (0, 5), where is it located?

Back

The point is located on the y-axis, 5 units above the origin.
