How can you name a point on a graph?

Compare it's position to the origin. The x coordinate is the number of units to the right of the origin. (If it is to the left of the origin the x coordinate is negative.) The y coordinate is the number of units above the origin. (If it is below, the y coordinate is negative.) The point is denoted (x,y) with the x coordinate in place of the x and the y coordinate in place of the y.


What is a y coordinate?

What is the y coordinate with the point given below?

To provide you with the y-coordinate, I would need to know the specific point you are referring to. Points are usually given in the format (x, y), where x is the x-coordinate and y is the y-coordinate. Please provide the point, and I'll help you identify the y-coordinate.

No, the y-coordinate can be positive or negative.


Another name for the x coordinate of a point is?

The abscissa is another name for the x (horizontal) coordinate of a point. Pronounced "ab-SISS-ah" (the 'c;' is silent). Not used very much. Most commonly, the term "x-coordinate" is used. The ordinate is another name for the y (vertical) coordinate of a point. Pronounced "ORD-inet". Not used very much. Most commonly, the term "y-coordinate" is used.

Is the ordered pair 5 2 the same point as 2 5 in the xy-plane?

No. In an ordered pair for a point in the xy-plane the first number is the x-coordinate and the second is the y-coordinate. (2, 5) is the point with an x-coordinate of 2 and a y-coordinate of 5; (5, 2) is the point with an x-coordinate of 5 and a y-coordinate of 2. Only if the x- and y- coordinates are equal are the points the same point. However, the point (5, 2) is the reflection of the point (2, 5) in the line y = x.


The second number in an ordered pair?

y-coordinate * * * * * Actually, its proper name is the ordinate!
