Answer :

  • c) y = 6

Explanation :

Given :

  • The line is parallel to x - axis .
  • It is 6 units above origin .

For a line parallel to x - axis , its abscissa should be zero while it has its coordinate in y - axis only . So , we are confirmed that the line will be either c) or d) .

Now , it is given that line is 6 units above to x - axis . From the Cartesian plane , we can see that above the origin , the y axis is positive .

Therefore , the equation for line parallel to x - axis and 6 units above the origin is y = 6 .

X - axis (horizontal line) is also called abscissa and y - axis (vertical line) is also called ordinate .

Abscissa :

  • Positive ( right to the origin)
  • Negetive ( left to the origin)

Ordinate :

  • Positive (above the origin)
  • Negetive ( Below the origin)
