5/10/2019 Chapter 9 Lesson 2: Ordered Pairs DO NOW (~5 min): x-axis: the horizontal number line on the grid that goes from west to east y-axis: the vertical number line on the grid that goes from north to south ordered pair: a point represented by a pair of numbers that gives the x- coordinate and y-coordinate on a gridObjective: SW graph and name points on a coordinate grid using ordered pairs.EXPLANATION (5 min): When we do coordinate pairs, the first number is always going to be the x-coordinate. The second number is always going to be the y-coordinate. You can remember this by thinking about how x comes before y in the alphabet. The x-axis is horizontal which begins with “h” while the y-axis is vertical which begins with “v’. H comes before v in the alphabet too! (x y)
