One possible answer is the y-axis. However, there need not be any y axis.

How do you explain abscissa and ordinate?
The vertical axis of a graph is known as the ordinate and the horizontal axis of a graph is known as the abscissa. So commonly when talking about (x,y) as a point on the graph, we refer to x value as the abscissa and y value as the ordinate.
What does every y - intercept have in common?
Its x coordinate is 0.The abscissa (x-coordinate) is zero.
What is an abscissa?
An abscissa is the coordinate representing the position of a point along a line perpendicular to the y-axis in a plane Cartesian coordinate system.
Where does the point lie if its abscissa is 0?
It's somewhere on the y-axis.
What is the two numbers corresponding to a point in the coordinate plain?
The simple answer is "the coordinates". A more pedantic answer is abscissa along the horizontal axis and ordinate on the vertical axis.
What is the abscissa of a point on the y axis?
The abscissa is the X coordinate of a point, so a point on the Y axis has an abscissa of zero.
What is the abscissa of all the points in the y-axis?
the abscissa of the point -2 -5 is
What is abscissa in math?
The word abscissa can either refer the horizontal axis (the x-axis) in a cartesian coordinate system or the actual coordinate plotted on the horizontal axis.
Is the x axis the same as the ordinate?
No the x axis is the abscissa and the y axis the ordinate.
What is the x axis called on a line graph?
The "abscissa"
What is the abscissa of any point on the y-axis?
It is 0.
What quadrants would a zero abscissa and a negative ordinate be in?
A point with those properties is on the negative-y axis . . . the boundary line between Quadrants III and IV.
How do you explain abscissa and ordinate?
The vertical axis of a graph is known as the ordinate and the horizontal axis of a graph is known as the abscissa. So commonly when talking about (x,y) as a point on the graph, we refer to x value as the abscissa and y value as the ordinate.
Is the x coordinate of a point on the y axis always zero never zero or sometimes zero?
The y-axis has the equation x=0, so every point on the y-axis has an x coordinate of zero.
What does every y - intercept have in common?
Its x coordinate is 0.The abscissa (x-coordinate) is zero.
What is an abscissa?
An abscissa is the coordinate representing the position of a point along a line perpendicular to the y-axis in a plane Cartesian coordinate system.
What is the abscissa of a point on the x-axis?
The 'abscissa' is the x coordinate on the Cartesian plane and the 'ordinate' is the y coordinate on the Cartesian plane
