What do ordered pairs mean on a graph?
On a graph, you have two axis, x and y. In an ordered pair, the first number is the x coordinate, and the second number is the y coordinate. On the x-axis, if the x-coordinate is negative then you go left. If the x-coordinate is positive, then you go right. On the y-axis, it works the same way. If the y-coordinate is negative, you go down, but if it is positive, then you go up. For example, if you had the ordered pair (-7,4), then you would go left seven spaces on the x-axis and up four spaces on the y-axis.
Which way does the Y axis go?
The standard way is vertical, up-down for the Y axis. The X axis is horizontal, left-right
What type of number is to the right of zero on the x axis and above zero on the y axis?
Positive x- and y-coordinates of a point in the first quadrant.
What axis do you read first on a graph?
The x axis is read first when plotting points in the form (x,y) on the xy-plane.
Which axis is listed first when listing coordinates of a graph?
(x,y)
