Coordinate Plane to 3D The coordinate plane (with the x and y axis) is a two dimensional plane. In other words, it is a flat surface. Coordinate space is made up of the x and y axes and another axis called the z axis.
Ordered Triplets Points in coordinate space with x, y, and z coordinates are called ordered triplets. The point (1, 4, 7) means 1 on x axis, 4 along y axis, and 7 in third dimension (z axis).
Systems of Three Equations Solution to a system of three equations is an ordered triplet. We can use substitution or elimination to solve a system of three equations.
