Question

What is the order of the coordinates in an ordered pair (4, 6)? *

1(a,b). a-coordinate, b-coordinate
2(x, y) x-coordinate, y-coordinate
3(b,a) b-coordinate, a-coordinate
4(y, x) y-coordinate, x-coordinate

Answer 1

2 as the 4 is referring to the x-axis and y to the y-axis

Answer 2

Lets use process of elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The order of the coordinate grid is like the alphabet. a comes before b,  x comes before y.

2. Step 1 This eliminates 3 and 4. So we are left with 2 and 1.

3. It is not 1 because there is no a and b coordinate. There is only a Y and x one.

4. 4 is on the x axis, 6 is on the y axis.

5. Thus, the answer is 2.
