Remember
- The x-axis is horizontal and the y-axis is vertical; they meet at the origin (0, 0).
- An ordered pair (x, y) gives the move right first, then up.
- (2, 5) and (5, 2) are two different points.
- Points with the same x-coordinate or the same y-coordinate lie on a straight line, so subtract to find the distance.
- Axis labels explain what each coordinate means in a real-world graph.
