Where does the point (0, - 3) lie? a. positive x-axis b. negative x-axis c. positive y-axis d. negative y-axis amu?

An ordered pair is written like this, ( x, y ). In this case x = 0 and y = -3. On a graph the vertical line is the y-axis and the horizontal line is the x-axis. The origin is point ( 0, 0 ). To the left of the origin on the x-axis is the negative number line and to the right is the positive number line. On the y-axis, south of the origin is the negative number line and north is the positive number line. When you plot a point on a graph you do x first, so if x equals 1, you would move one right, -1, one left. IF y were to equal 2 then from the place where you are on the x-axis, 1, you would move two up, -2, two down. In this case x = 0 so you would stay at the origin, and y = -3 so you would move 3 down. So ( 0, -3 ) would lie negative y-axis. The answer is D.
