Question

For every point P (xyz) on the x-axis (except the origin),

Options

  •  x = 0, y = 0, z ≠ 0

  •  x = 0, z = 0, y ≠ 0

  • y = 0, z = 0, x ≠ 0

  • x = y = z = 0

Solution

y=0, z = 0, x  0              

Both Y and Z coordinates on each point of the xaxis are equal to zero. The Xcoordinate on the origin is also equal to zero.Therefore, the Y and Z coordinates on each point of the xaxis, except the origin, are equal to zero, while the Xcoord
