Match the vocabulary word to its correct definition. 1. abscissa the variable representing the first elements of the ordered pairs in a function; the inputs 2. dependent variable the second number (or y value) of an ordered pair 3. independent variable the variable representing the second elements of the ordered pairs in a function; the outputs 4. ordinate the first number (or x value) of an ordered pair

1. Independent variable

2. Ordinate

3. Dependent variable

4. Abscissa

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The variable representing the first elements of the ordered pairs in a function; the inputs: this is the independent variable or the predictor variables.

2. The second number (or y value) of an ordered pair: Ordinate, also known as the y coordinate

3. the variable representing the second elements of the ordered pairs in a function; the outputs: the dependent variable also known as the response variables or the outcome variables.

4. The first number (or x value) of an ordered pair: abscissa, also called the x coordinate
