Give an example of an ordered pair that is plotted by only moving down from the origin along the y-axis. Explain.

trantom · Answer

(0,4) is a point that is still on the y axis, because if x equals 0 then the point is on the y axis

trantom · Answer

*(0,-4)

zkoqmosii · Answer

An ordered pair (p,q) represents a point p units to the right of the origin and q units above it. 
As you want to be *down* from the origin, q must be negative. 
As you want to be *on* the y axis, p must be 0. 
Hence the point you want is of the form (0, -q), where q is negative. 
Examples? (0, -1) (0, -2)...etc
