                              ACTIVITY: Ordered Pairs


                In this activity, we are going to study writing ordered pairs.

               In the table below, the height and weight of Ayşe are given and written as an ordered pair.

               You are going to write the height and the weight of three of your friends in the table and write
               your findings as ordered pairs.


                                                             Data              Ordered Pair
                                       Name            Height    Weight      (height, weight)
                                                        (cm)       (kg)
                                        Ayşe            158        52            (158, 52)





                a) Which student does each ordered pair represent?


                b) Does the meaning of the pair change if the numbers in each ordered pair are interchanged?
               Discuss.
