उत्तर
Let point Q be at a distance of 8 units from P and on left side of P
Let point R be at a distance of 8 units from P and on right side of P.

(i) Let the co-ordinate of point Q be x.
Co-ordinate of point P is -7.
Since, point Q is to the left of point P.
∴ -7 > x
∴ d(P, Q) = -7 - x
∴ 8 = -7 - x
∴ x = -7 - 8
∴ x = -15
(ii) Let the co-ordinate of point R be y.
Co-ordinate of point P is -7.
Since, point R is to the right of point P.
∴ y > -7
∴ d(P, R) = 7 - (-7)
∴ 8 = y + 7
∴ 8 - 7 = 7
∴ y = 1
∴ The co-ordinates of the points at a distance of 8 units from P are -15 and 1.
