Question

Which statement is true for the ordered pair shown on the coordinate plane?

• A. The y-coordinate is greater than the x-coordinate.
• B. The x-coordinate is greater than the y-coordinate.
• C. The point is located on the origin.
• D. The x-coordinate and y-coordinate are the same.

Answer 1

The correct option is B The x-coordinate is greater than the y-coordinate.

The location of the ordered pair (7,3) is shown below.

Here,
x-coordinate = 7
y-coordinate = 3

Clearly, the x-coordinate here is greater than the y-coordinate.
