Math Graphing Coordinates
Each point can be identified by an ordered pair of numbers.
Math graphing coordinates. Well once again the first number in the ordered pair is the x coordinate how far we move in the x direction. The location of 2 5 is shown on the coordinate grid below. There are several coordinate systems that are widely in use. Coordinates are a set of numbers one two or more of them that determine the position of a point or a geometric body within a coordinate system.
Note that there is no space after the comma. Let s do one more 5 comma 7. The order of the coordinates is important and it indicates the axis of reference for that specific coordinate. Review graphing points on a coordinate plane and try some practice problems.
And then the second number the 10 tells us our vertical coordinate our y coordinate. So it s positive 10. Review graphing points on a coordinate plane and try some practice problems. Ordered pairs are written in parentheses x coordinate y coordinate.
The origin is located at 0 0. In other words it tells you which number refers to which axis. So my horizontal coordinate is 5 so i move 5 to the right. So we move 10 up.
