Do you know what is "the ordered pair"? - It is pair of x and y, i.e. (x,y).

How to get such a pair? - Take any arbitrary value of x and calculate y. Then (x,y) will be your pair.

By the same way, make the second pair.

Mark the pair as a point on a coordinate plane. - Do you know how to do it ?

Mark the second pair by the same way.

Do you know now what to do next ?
