The ordinate of point p is -8.

Step-by-step explanation:

If coordinate of a point are (x,y), then x is abscissa and y is ordinate.

|x| represents the perpendicular distance from y-axis.

|y| represents the perpendicular distance from x-axis.

It is given that perpendicular distance of a point p from x-axis be 8 units along the negative direction of y axis. It means y-coordinate is negative and |y|=8.

y-coordinate of point P = -8

Therefore, the ordinate of point p is -8.
