The point \((4,\,0)\) lies on which of the following?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → the x-axis
Every point on the x-axis has y-coordinate 0, and every point on the y-axis has x-coordinate 0.
The y-coordinate of \((4,\,0)\) is 0, so the point is on the x-axis, 4 units to the right of the origin
Its x-coordinate is 4, not 0, so it is not on the y-axis and it is not the origin \((0,\,0)\)
