Plotting the point.
It is the geometric representation, in the Cartesian plane, of the ordered pair.
Placing a dot at the point named by an ordered pair involves plotting the coordinates on a Cartesian coordinate system. An ordered pair, typically written as (x, y), specifies the horizontal (x) and vertical (y) positions. You start at the origin (0, 0), move along the x-axis to the x-coordinate, and then move vertically to the y-coordinate to accurately locate and mark the point.

This is called plotting the point on the Cartesian or coordinate plane.

Placing a dot at the point named by an ordered pair involves plotting the coordinates on a Cartesian coordinate system. An ordered pair, typically written as (x, y), specifies the horizontal (x) and vertical (y) positions. You start at the origin (0, 0), move along the x-axis to the x-coordinate, and then move vertically to the y-coordinate to accurately locate and mark the point.
The origin, in the Cartesian coordinate system, is the point with coordinates (0, 0). So, if you have another ordered pair, the ordered pair doesn't "have an origin"; rather, the origin is another point.
A point, in two dimensional space, is defined as an ordered pair.

.
The second number in an ordered pair (x,y) is the y-coordinate for that point.
There is no ordered pair for y =4. y=4 is a line, not a point.
