The ordered pair to represent the second term as an ordered pair is:

Step-by-step explanation:

Background knowledge about the sequence function

A sequence is defined as the function whose domain is the set of natural numbers (counting numbers).

1,        2,        3,       4,            n,    

↓

a₁,       a₂,      a₃,      a₄,           aₙ,  

Here,

1 gets mapped onto a₁,

2 gets mapped onto a₂, and so on

The numbers a₁,       a₂,      a₃,      a₄,           aₙ,   are the terms of the sequence.

The number aₙ is the nth term of a sequence.

And the sequence function is denoted by {aₙ}.

Given the sequence

3, 9, 15, 21, ...

Here,

a₁ = 3 is the first term

a₂ = 9 is the second term

Thus, the ordered pair to represent the second term as an ordered pair is:
