Let’s solve this step by step.
We are given a coordinate grid with objects placed at different points. The horizontal axis (x-axis) goes from 1 to 10 left to right. The vertical axis (y-axis) goes from 1 to 10 bottom to top.
An ordered pair is written as (x, y), where:
- x = the column number (left to right)
- y = the row number (bottom to top)
---
Part 1: Write the ordered pair for each object listed.
a.
helicopter
Look at the helicopter — it’s in column 6, row 2 →
(6, 2)
b.
shoes
Shoes are in column 9, row 3 →
(9, 3)
c.
pepper
Pepper (looks like a chili pepper) is in column 4, row 1 →
(4, 1)
d.
wizard's hat
Wizard’s hat is in column 7, row 7 →
(7, 7)
e.
fish
Fish is in column 8, row 9 →
(8, 9)
f.
golf cart
Golf cart is in column 3, row 7 →
(3, 7)
---
Part 2: Tell which object is located at each point.
e.
(3,4) → Go to column 3, row 4 → That’s the
bench
f.
(2,6) → Column 2, row 6 → That’s the
tennis racket
g.
(1,4) → Column 1, row 4 → That’s the
bow
h.
(5,5) → Column 5, row 5 → That’s the
chicken
i.
(9,8) → Column 9, row 8 → That’s the
donut
j.
(3,9) → Column 3, row 9 → That’s the
trumpet
