Here's the complete solution to the "Ordered Pairs" worksheet, with explanations for each part.
---
Part 1: Tell what point is located at each ordered pair.
An ordered pair is written as
(x, y), where:
-
x = horizontal position (move right from origin)
-
y = vertical position (move up from origin)
Let’s find each point:
1.
(5,8) → Go right 5, up 8 → Point
M
2.
(12,2) → Go right 12, up 2 → Point
P
3.
(8,7) → Go right 8, up 7 → Point
H
4.
(12,10) → Go right 12, up 10 → Point
G
5.
(7,7) → Go right 7, up 7 → Point
Q
6.
(0,10) → Go right 0 (stay on y-axis), up 10 → Point
E
✔ Answers:
1. M
2. P
3. H
4. G
5. Q
6. E

Part 2: Write the ordered pair for each given point.
Now we reverse the process — look at the point and read its (x,y) coordinates.
7.
N → Located at x=1, y=1 →
(1,1)
8.
L → Located at x=4, y=3 →
(4,3)
9.
J → Located at x=11, y=1 →
(11,1)
10.
A → Located at x=2, y=12 →
(2,12)
11.
B → Located at x=0, y=4 →
(0,4)
12.
E → Located at x=0, y=10 →
(0,10)
✔ Answers:
7. (1,1)
8. (4,3)
9. (11,1)
10. (2,12)
11. (0,4)
12. (0,10)

Part 3: Plot the following points on the coordinate grid.
You need to plot these points on the graph provided. Here’s how:
13.
S (6,11) → Move right 6, up 11 → Place a dot and label it
S
14.
T (3,5) → Move right 3, up 5 → Place a dot and label it
T
15.
U (9,12) → Move right 9, up 12 → Place a dot and label it
U
> 💡 *Note: Since you can’t physically plot here, I’m describing where to place them. On your worksheet, use a pencil to mark these points accurately.*
