Question

How to graph 3 ordered pairs

Answer 1

Answer: I'm assuming you just need to graph each ordered pair without doing anything else to them. The first number in the ordered pair is called the x-intercept, the second number is the y-intercept. To graph an ordered pair you need to count the x-intercept number and go to that number on the x-axis (horizontal), do the same for the y-intercept on the y-axis (vertical) and make a point/dot. Repeat this for the other two ordered pairs.

Answer 2

Answer,

Determine the x-intercept and y-intercept and plot on the graph.

Explanation,

If you already have your three ordered pairs simply start off by determining the x and y intercepts. After you have done this you can plot the x intercept on the x-axis and the y intercept on the y-axis. Repeat for the other two as well.

Here is an example, (5,7)

Our x intercept is (5) and our y intercept is (7).  

You should have a graph that looks somewhat like the first picture.

Then you will find where the (5) goes which is on the x-axis. (The x-axis is the horizontal line)

Then you will find where the (7) goes which is on the y-axis. (The y-axis is the vertical line.)

The second picture shows the plotted graph.
