Question

If A(–2, 3) and B(–3, 5) are two given points then(abscissa of A) – (abscissa of B) = ? *

1 point

-2

1

-1

2

​

Answer 1

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

abssissa of A= -2

abssissa of B= -3

answer -2+3= 1

Answer 2

(abscissa of A) – (abscissa of B) = 1

Given :

A(–2, 3) and B(–3, 5) are two given points

To find :

The value of (abscissa of A) – (abscissa of B) is

• - 2

• 1

• - 1

• 2

Concept :

In two dimensional cartesian coordinate system an ordered pair (x, y) is used to represent a point.

First component of the ordered pair (x, y) is called abscissa of the point while second component of the ordered pair (x, y) is called ordinate of the point.

Abscissa = x - coordinate of the point

Ordinate = y - coordinate of the point

Solution :

Step 1 of 2 :

Find abscissa of A and abscissa of B

Here the given points are A(–2, 3) and B(–3, 5)

abscissa of A = x - coordinate of A = - 2

abscissa of B = x - coordinate of B = - 3

Step 2 of 2 :

Find the value of (abscissa of A) – (abscissa of B)

(abscissa of A) – (abscissa of B)

= - 2 - ( - 3 )

= - 2 + 3

= 1

Hence the correct option is 1
