Let's solve the problem step by step.
We are given a coordinate plane with several points labeled A through I. Our task is to
identify the ordered pairs (x, y) for each point.
---
🔍 How to find an ordered pair:
An ordered pair is written as
(x, y), where:
-
x is the horizontal coordinate (how far right or left from the origin),
-
y is the vertical coordinate (how far up or down from the origin).
We start at the origin (0, 0), move along the x-axis first, then up/down along the y-axis.
---
Now let’s locate each point:
---
✔ Point A
- Lies on the y-axis (x = 0)
- y-coordinate is 4
- So,
A → (0, 4)
---
✔ Point B
- x = 1, y = 9
- So,
B → (1, 9)
---
✔ Point C
- x = 4, y = 12
- So,
C → (4, 12)
---
✔ Point D
- x = 6, y = 7
- So,
D → (6, 7)
---
✔ Point E
- x = 7, y = 0 (on the x-axis)
- So,
E → (7, 0)
---
✔ Point F
- x = 12, y = 5
- So,
F → (12, 5)
---
✔ Point G
- x = 15, y = 2
- So,
G → (15, 2)
---
✔ Point H
- x = 8, y = 13
- So,
H → (8, 13)
---
✔ Point I
- x = 16, y = 11
- So,
I → (16, 11)
---
✔ Final Answer:
```
A → (0, 4)
B → (1, 9)
C → (4, 12)
D → (6, 7)
E → (7, 0)
F → (12, 5)
G → (15, 2)
H → (8, 13)
I → (16, 11)
```
✔ These are the correct ordered pairs for each point on the coordinate plane.
