on a coordinate grid, X always comes before Y
The bootom of the coordinate grid
x,y
Yes because x is before y as in the coordinate for example of (2, 3)
its called an ordered pair. it is an x-coordinate and a y-coordinate (x,y)
a coordinate grid
X- axis
a grid in a rectangular shape with a x axis and a y axis.
A coordinate grid is squares. It has an origin where a vertical line, the y axis, and a horizontal line, the x axis, cross.
On a standard coordinate grid, you count the x-axis (horizontal) first, followed by the y-axis (vertical). The x-coordinate indicates the position along the horizontal axis, while the y-coordinate indicates the position along the vertical axis. For example, the point (3, 2) means you move 3 units along the x-axis and then 2 units up along the y-axis.
To make a quarter turn clockwise on a grid, you rotate an object or point 90 degrees to the right. If you're working with coordinates, for a point (x, y), the new coordinates after the rotation will be (y, -x). This means that the x-coordinate becomes the y-coordinate, and the y-coordinate becomes the negative x-coordinate. Visualizing this on the grid can help you see how the point shifts position.
x axis, or the abcissa
To plot ordered pairs on a coordinate grid, start by identifying the x-coordinate (horizontal) and y-coordinate (vertical) of the pair, typically written as (x, y). Locate the x-coordinate on the horizontal axis and draw a vertical line upwards to the corresponding y-coordinate. Finally, mark the point where the vertical line intersects with the horizontal line, representing the ordered pair on the grid. Repeat this process for additional pairs as needed.
