Question

Name all the points shown that lie on the y-axis.

Short answer

The points that lie ony-axis areR,OandZ.

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Observe the figure.

From the figure it can be observed that, it is the x-y plane with several coordinates J, K, M, N, O, P, Q and so on are marked on it.

Step 2. Define coordinate of a point.

Coordinate (x, y) of apoint is an ordered pair of numbers; that is, a number on thex-axis called anx-coordinate, and a number on they-axis called ay-coordinate.

Step 3. Name the points that lie on y-axis.

They-axis is the axis where value of x is zero everywhere.

The y-axis in given graph is shown below:

Here, pointsR,O andZ are ony-axis.
