Question

Write the ordered pair for each point.

$D$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The ordered pair for point $\mathit{D}$ is $\left(0,0\right)$.

Step 1. Observe the figure.

From the figure, it can be observed that it is the $x\text{-}y$ plane with several coordinates $A,B,C,D,E,$ and $F$ marked on it.

Step 2. Define the coordinate of a point.

Coordinate or an ordered pair $\left(x,y\right)$ of a point is a pair of numbers; that is, a number on the $x$-axis called an $x$-coordinate, and a number on the $y$-axis called a $y$-coordinate. 

Step 3. Name the coordinates of the point D .

Steps to find the coordinate of point $D$ are:

• Point $D$ is 0 units away from the origin on $x$ axis. Thus, the $x$-coordinate is 0.
• Then the point $D$ is 0 units away from the origin on $y$ axis. Thus, the $y$-coordinate is 0.

Therefore, the coordinates of the point $D$ is $\left(0,0\right)$.
