A non-example of a coordinate pair would be a single number or value, as a coordinate pair consists of two values representing a point's position on a graph. For example, the number 5 by itself is not a coordinate pair. In a coordinate pair, the two values are typically separated by a comma and enclosed in parentheses, such as (3, 7).

You are going to have a x axis and a y axis on your coordinate graph. Let's say that the number in the x axis is 3 and the number on the y axis is -5. The x axis will bring the x coordinate, which is he 1st number in the ordered pair. The y axis will bring you the y coordinate, which is the second number of an ordered pair. This means that 3, the number on the x axis is first and -5, the number on the y axis is second. In this example, the ordered pair is (3,-5). So pretty much, an ordered pair is (x coordinate, y coordinate). Thank you for reading my answer.
The y coordinate is -1 and the x coordinate is 4
The vertical value in a pair of coordinates. How far up or down the point is. The Y Coordinate is always written second in an ordered pair of coordinates.
The abscissa is another word for the first coordinate in an ordered pair.
You know which is the x coordinate and which is the y coordinate because (x,y) is an ordered pair. The x is always first and the y second. For example, the point (4,5) has x coordinate of 4 and y of 5.
