A point that lies on the x-axis has its
Ax-coordinate equal to zero
By-coordinate equal to zero
Cboth coordinates equal
Dcoordinates undefined
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. y-coordinate equal to zero
1. Every point on the x-axis is at height zero.
2. So its **y-coordinate is zero** (form (x, 0)).
3. Similarly, a point on the y-axis has its x-coordinate zero.
