What is the origin in a Cartesian coordinate plane?
The point (0,0) or the point of intersection of the x-axis and the y-axis.
What are the specific mathematical terms used for the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate?
The x-coordinate is called the abscissa (the horizontal distance from the y-axis), and the y-coordinate is called the ordinate (the vertical distance from the x-axis).
