how do we graph ordered pairs on the coordinate plane?

The ordered pair is put into the form, (x,y), meaning that from the origin, O, (0,0), (the place where the two axis intersect) you move the point x numbers to the right, where x is the x in your ordered pair. Then, from that point, you move y numbers up, where y is y in your ordered pair. So to graph the coordinates (3,4), I would start at the origin, move 3 units to the right, and then move 4 units up.
