Maths - Co ordinates


Well hello there, it's been such a long time since I've blogged and it feels good to be back! Today for maths we learnt about co ordinates.
A co ordinate is a special kind of point because X comes before Y.
Sounds confusing?? Well let me help you firstly in a Co ordinate there is two numbers. There is also many types of lines for e.g
 X is how far along
Y is how far up
M = Slope or Gradient (how steep the line is)
B = the Y Intercept (where the line crosses the Y axis)

Here is an Image of co ordinates:

Your image clearly shows how to write coordinate a co ordinate; good choice.
Can this point also be written (4,2)
