Solution
A point has 5 as its x–coordinate and 4 as its y–coordinate. Then the coordinates of the point are given by (5, 4).
Explanation:
To denote a point in 2-D, we use two numbers viz. the x-coordinate, the y-coordinate.
In the ordered pair, the x-coordinate is written in the first slot and the y-coordinate in the second slot separated by comma.
Hence, the required point is (5, 4).
