the x value (First) is called the "ordinate" and the Y value (Second) is called the "abscissa"
Hope this helped.

I hope not - because it is the wrong way around!
For a point (x, y), x is the abscissa and y is the ordinate!

An ordered pair has to be in parentheses and there has to be a comma in between the numbers (example: (2,6). An ordered pair is for a coordinate graph.
A prism cannot be used to name an ordered pair.
Because otherwise it would not be an "ordered" pair.
An ordered pair can contain any valid numbers - integers, fractions, decimals, or even complex numbers.
The pair (2, 3) is the same as the pair (3, 2) but the ORDERED pair (2, 3) is NOT the same as the ORDERED pair (3, 2). In an ordered pair the order of the numbers does matter.
