A y coordinate is when you have a long line (y axis) and you coordinate (put numbers on that line) and you graph them

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.
its called an ordered pair. it is an x-coordinate and a y-coordinate (x,y)
If a point lies on the x-axis, then you know that the y-coordinate is zero.
The y coordinate is given below:
An ordered pair that has a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate (-,+) would be plotted in which quadrant?
