Question

how do you write an ordered pair?
options: (x,y), (y,y), (x,x)

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

An ordered pair in the context of coordinate geometry (a part of Mathematics, specifically Geometry) is used to represent a point in a coordinate system. The first element of the ordered pair represents the x - coordinate (horizontal position) and the second element represents the y - coordinate (vertical position). So, the correct form of an ordered pair is \((x,y)\), while \((y,y)\) and \((x,x)\) do not follow the standard convention for representing a point with distinct x and y coordinates (in most cases where we are representing a general point in a 2 - D plane).

Answer:

A. \((X,Y)\)
