Let’s find the ordered pair for each point. Remember, an ordered pair is written as (x, y), where:
-
x is how far right the point is from the origin (0,0) — look at the bottom axis.
-
y is how far up the point is — look at the left axis.
We’ll go one by one.
---
Point A:
It’s on the y-axis, so x = 0.
It’s at height 4, so y = 4.
→ (0, 4)
Point B:
Go right to x = 1, then up to y = 9.
→ (1, 9)
Point C:
Right to x = 4, up to y = 12.
→ (4, 12)
Point D:
Right to x = 6, up to y = 7.
→ (6, 7)
Point E:
Right to x = 7, but it’s on the x-axis, so y = 0.
→ (7, 0)
Point F:
Right to x = 12, up to y = 5.
→ (12, 5)
Point G:
Right to x = 15, up to y = 2.
→ (15, 2)
Point H:
Right to x = 8, up to y = 13.
→ (8, 13)
Point I:
Right to x = 16, up to y = 11.
→ (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)
