# The point which lies on y-axis at a distance of 5 units in the negative direction of y-axis is(A) (0, 5)      (B) (5, 0)     (C) (0,-5) (D) (-5,0)

Answer: (C) $(0, -5)$

Solution.

We know that the point lies on y-axis so its x-coordinate is zero.
Also, it is a distance of 5 units in the negative direction of y-axis.
So that y-coordinate is negative with an ordinate of 5.
(A) (0, 5) lies in the positive direction in y-axis.
(B) (5, 0) lies on positive direction in x-axis.
(C) $(0, -5)$lies in the negative direction in y-axis.
(D) $(-5, 0)$ lies in the negative direction in x-axis.
Therefore option (C) is correct
