This teaching derivation has second-context AI mathematical and bilingual semantic review, limited to the model and assumptions stated in this question. It has no human review or new Lean proof and does not promote the original question or MKO to Canonical truth.

R0005-03456 · q-20260930-r07-coordinate-component-0006



## Original question and givens

In one explicit Cartesian coordinate system, what is the y-coordinate of P=(-1,-2)? Read the ordered pair as (x,y).


- G001 — In one explicit Cartesian coordinate system, what is the y-coordinate of P=(-1,-2)? Read the ordered pair as (x,y).





## Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

## Step-by-step derivation

S001 · impliesBefore

P=(-1,-2) in one declared rectangular frame

After

first component=x;second component=y

Conditions: none

In the same coordinate frame,the ordered pair lists horizontal before vertical;do not swap components or infer missing values from a drawing.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: ordered_coordinate_convention · Uses: G001





S002 · impliesBefore

requested component=y;P=(-1,-2)

After

-2

Conditions: none

Project the specified coordinate directly,retaining its sign and any zero.

Step identifiers and dependenciesRule: coordinate_component_projection · Uses: G001, S001









## Reverse checks


- S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
- S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.





## Result

-2

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
