Chapter 4.4, Problem 6E

To determine

To use: the scatter plot to fill in the missing coordinate of the ordered pair $(\underset{\_}{},17)$ .

Answer to Problem 6E

Missing coordinate is $8$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given information: We are given a scatter plot.

Calculation: The coordinate of any point in $xy-\mathrm{plane}$ is perpendicular distance from $y-\mathrm{axis}\mathrm{and}x-\mathrm{axis}$ .

Perpendicular distance of any point in $xy-\mathrm{plane}$ from $y-\mathrm{axis}$ is known as $x-\mathrm{coordinate}$ .

Perpendicular distance of any point in $xy-\mathrm{plane}$ from $x-\mathrm{axis}$ is known as $y-\mathrm{coordinate}$ .

The given ordered pair is $(\underset{\_}{},17)$ .

Perpendicular distance of that point from $y-\mathrm{axis}$ is $8$ whose Perpendicular distance from $x-\mathrm{axis}$ is $17$ .

Therefore missing coordinate is $8$ .
