What does axis mean in math terms?
It refers to the y or x axis on a graph. The x-axis is located at any point with 0 as the y point. The y-axis is located at any point with 0 as the x point.
Is the x cordinate of a point on the y axis zero?
yes, any point " on the y-axis" has its x co-ordinate as zero.
What is the point at which a graph intersects the y-axis?
A graph intersects the y-axis at the y-intercept; its x value is zero.
In the ordered pair x and y the x is called the origin?
No, the origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis meet in the coordinate plane. The x value of an ordered pair is called the abscissa (the y value is called the ordinate).
In which quadrant is the point of origin?
The point of origin is not in any quadrant. In fact, any point on the X or Y axis is not in a quadrant. In order for a point to be in Q1, Q2, Q3 or Q4, it must not be on an axis.
Which point is located on the x-axis of a coordinate grid?
The x-axis is infinite. Any number can be on the x-axis of the coordinate plane. If you mean what is the y-coordinate, every point on the x-axis has a y coordinate of zero: (x, 0)
What does axis mean in math terms?
It refers to the y or x axis on a graph. The x-axis is located at any point with 0 as the y point. The y-axis is located at any point with 0 as the x point.
What is the value of y and the point where a straight line crosses the x-axis?
The value of x is called the x-intercept. The value of y at this point is always zero, 0. The point has coordinates (a,0) where a represents the value where the line crosses the x-axis.
Is the x coordinate of a point that lies on the x-axis negative?
If it is on the X-axis, the the value of x is zero so it is not negative.
The x value of the point where a graph crosses the x axis?
It is the x intercept
Is the scale on a graph the numbers?
Yes, the numbers on the X-axis and the Y-axis are the scale. The scale determines the value of any given point.
What do all points on the x axis have in common?
A fact that is true for all point on the X axis is Y=0. There is not a single point on the axis where this is not true. Similarly, the one fact that is true for all points on the Y axis is than X=0.
Why does the xy-cordinate never intersect the x-axis?
When y=0 in any xy-coordinate, then the point will be on the x- axis. For example the point (1,0) is on the x axis with x=1.
When a point lies on the y-axis what do you know about it's x-coordinate .?
The x-coordinate of any point on the y-axis is 0. The y-axis is a line perpendicular to the x-axis. Any point on a line perpendicular to the x-axis has the same x-coordinate. The y-axis is the line perpendicular to the x-axis through 0, and has the equation x = 0; similarly, the x-axis is the line perpendicular to the y-axis through 0 and has the equation y = 0.
What is x intercept defined as?
The x-intercept is the point at which a graph or function intersects the x-axis. It is the value of x when y is equal to zero on the graph.
Is the x cordinate of a point on the y axis zero?
yes, any point " on the y-axis" has its x co-ordinate as zero.
What is the ordinate of any point on the x-axis?
It is 0.
