Identifying Coordinates of a Point on a Graph

To determine the ordered pair for a point displayed on a coordinate plane, read each coordinate from the appropriate axis. Find the x-coordinate by looking at the number on the x-axis that is directly above or below the point. Find the y-coordinate by looking at the number on the y-axis that is directly to the left or right of the point. Always write the result as an ordered pair in the correct sequence, (x,y)(x, y).
