Question

The point which lies on the y-axis at a distance of 5 units in the negative
direction of the y-axis is
(a) (-5,0)
(b) (0,-5)
(c) (5,0)
(d) (0,5)


give reasion also! ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given the point lie on Y-axis this shows that its x-coordinate is zero. Also , it is at a distance of 5 units in negative direction of Y-axis , so its y-coordinate is negative. Hence, the required point is (0,-5).

Answer 2

It is at a distance of 5 units in negative direction of Y-axis , so its y-coordinate is negative. Hence, the required point is (0,-5).
