An ordered pair (x, y) describes the location of a point on the coordinate plane. The first coordinate, x, tells you the position of the point along the x-axis. The second coordinate, y, tells you the position of the point along the y-axis.

First point  5 on the x axis and  2 on the y axis

An ordered pair (x, y) describes the location of a point on the coordinate plane. The first coordinate, x, tells you the position of the point along the x-axis. The second coordinate, y, tells you the position of the point along the y-axis.
