In an ordered pair it does not matter which number is called the x coordinate and which is called the y coordinate?
The first coordinate always is called the "x" coordinate, because it goes on the "x" axis, while the second coordinate is always called the "y" coordinate because it always goes on the "y" axis.
How do you determine what's plotted on x-axis and what is plotted on y-axis?
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.
