Question

Find the coordinate of the point whose abscissa is $5$ and which lies on x-axis.

• A. $(0,5)$
• B. $(5,5)$
• C. $(5,0)$
• D. $(-5,0)$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$\left(5,0\right)$

The abscissa of the given point is $5$ which implies that the x-coordinate of the point is $5$.

Since the point lies on the x-axis, the y-coordinate of the point must be zero.

From the above statements, the coordinate of the point can be written as $(x,y)=\left(5,0\right)$

Hence, the correct option is C.
