To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel four units to the right on the x-axis and three units up on the y-axis, from the origin. C. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel three units to the right on the x-axis and four units up on the y-axis, from the origin. D. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel three units to the right on the y-axis and four units up on the x-axis, from the origin.

Answer 1

Answer:

C. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel three units to the right on the x-axis and four units up on the y-axis, from the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

Which statement is true about the ordered pair (3, 4)?

A. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel four units to the right on the y-axis and three units up on the x-axis, from the origin.

The y-axis is the vertical line you can't go left or right, you go up or down

Hence this answer is NOT correct

B. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel four units to the right on the x-axis and three units up on the y-axis, from the origin.

The coordinates of a point is (x, y) where x = 3 and y = 4 so moving right 4 units is wrong as x = 3

Hence this answer is NOT correct

C. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel three units to the right on the x-axis and four units up on the y-axis, from the origin.

three units to the right on the x-axis

four units up on the y-axis

Hence this answer is the correct

D. To plot the ordered pair (3 , 4), travel three units to the right on the y-axis and four units up on the x-axis, from the origin.

y does not equal 3 and you cant move right or left on the y-axis

Hence this answer is NOT correct
