3.2 - Ordered Pairs as Solutions

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

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

Front

Which coordinate comes first in an ordered pair?

Back

The x-coordinate comes first in an ordered pair.

How do you solve the inequality -36d > -6?

Back

To solve for d, divide both sides by -36, which reverses the inequality: d < -1/6.

Front

What is the solution to the equation 15x = 3?

Back

To solve for x, divide both sides by 15: x = 1/5.

Front

How do you solve the inequality -24m ≥ -12?

Back

To solve for m, divide both sides by -24, which reverses the inequality: m ≤ 1/2.

What does it mean for a point to be a solution to a line?

Back

A point is a solution to a line if it satisfies the equation of the line, meaning it lies on the line when plotted on a coordinate plane.

Front

Identify the solution to the line for the point (2, 7).

Back

(2, 7) is a solution to the line if it satisfies the line's equation.

Front

What is the x-coordinate in the ordered pair (3, 4)?

Back

The x-coordinate in the ordered pair (3, 4) is 3.

Front

What is the y-coordinate in the ordered pair (5, -2)?

Back

The y-coordinate in the ordered pair (5, -2) is -2.

Front

How do you graph an ordered pair (x, y)?

Back

To graph an ordered pair (x, y), start at the origin (0, 0), move x units horizontally (right for positive, left for negative), and then move y units vertically (up for positive, down for negative).
