Explanation:

To find the y-coordinate of each ordered pair, you substitute the value for the x-coordinate into x in the equation.

For example, on #1, substitute 1 in for x:

y = 3² - 5 = 9 - 5 = 4

This means the ordered pair is (3, 4) and corresponds with T.

In the same problem, substitute 2 in for x on the next line down:

y = 2² - 5 = 4 - 5 = -1

This means the ordered pair (2, -1) corresponds with E.

Continue this process to get all of the answers.
