Question

point P is on x-axis and is at a distance of 4 units from y axis to its left write the coordinates of the point P

Answer 1

point P lies on x -axis left side of the y-axis (-4,0)

Answer 2

coordiante of point P = (-4 , 0) if point P is on x-axis and is at a distance of 4 units from y axis to its left

Step-by-step explanation:

point P is on x-axis  => y coordinate = 0

P = ( x , 0)

P is at a distance of 4 units from y axis

=> (0 - x)² = 4²

=> x² = 4²

=> x = ± 4

distance of 4 units from y axis to its left

as we know from y axis / origin

points are + ve on right side  & - ve on left side

hence x = - 4

so coordinate of point P = (-4 , 0)
