Point (0, –7) lies
(A) on the x –axis
(B) in the second quadrant
(C) on the y-axis
(D) in the fourth quadrant
Answer: [C] on the y-axis
Solution.
We know that
Coordinate of the x-axis is (x, 0) i.e., the value of y coordinate is zero
Coordinate of the y-axis is (0, y) i.e., the value of x coordinate is zero
So the point is on the y-axis because here the value of x is 0 and value of y is 7.
Therefore option (C) is correct
