Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The scale on the graph is  unit. You have to go to the left of zero, which means the x-coordinate is negative. You also have to go down, so the y-coordinate is negative. The correct coordinates that make up the line segment are .

Example Question #23 : How To Graph An Ordered Pair

What ordered pair is shown below?

4  5

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The x-coordinate is the first one listed, and the y-coordinate is the second coordinate in the parentheses. You have to go either left or right with the x-coordinate, and the y-coordinate is the one on the vertical axis. 

The point shown is in the IV quadrant, which means that the x-coordinate is positive, and the y-coordinate is negative.

The only point that fulfills those standards is .

Example Question #31 : How To Graph An Ordered Pair

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To discover the answer, we must plug in the x-values to see which ordered pair results in the corresponding y-value.
