Which statement best describes ordered pairs on a coordinate plane? A) Either the x or y value may be written first in an ordered pair, depending on which value is the greatest. B) The y-coordinate is located by moving horizontally, while the x-coordinate is located by moving vertically. C) The x-coordinate tells how far to travel left or right of the origin, and the y-coordinate tells how far to travel above or below the origin. D) An ordered pair tells how far to go diagonally within a plane, with the first coordinate plotted diagonally from the origin in the first quadrant.

    C) The x-coordinate tells how far to travel left or right of the origin, and the y-coordinate tells how far to travel above or below the origin.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The x-coordinate tells how far to travel left (in this case the values of the x-coordinate are negative in value) or right (in this case the values of the x-coordinate are positive in value) of the origin

    Similarly, the y-coordinate tells how far to travel above (positive y-axis with positive values) or below (negative y-axis with negative values) the origin.
