5.8A

describe the key attributes of the coordinate plane, including perpendicular number lines (axes) where the intersection (origin) of the two lines coincides with zero on each number line and the given point (0, 0); the x- coordinate, the first number in an ordered pair, indicates movement parallel to the x- axis starting at the origin; and the y- coordinate, the second number, indicates movement parallel to the y- axis starting at the origin
