So I had to reread this about 3 times before it finally clicked, I've never done a problem like this before. An ordered pair is organized like so: (x-coordinate, y-coordinate) Meaning x=4 and y=6. If x=hot dogs and y=drinks then this means that Ben purchased 4 hot dogs and 6 drinks at the game.

Hope this helps!! (:
