In a coordinate plane, point P is 8 units to the left of the origin and 6 units up. What are the coordinates of point P?
Short Answer
The coordinates of the point will be .
Step by step solution
Step-1 – Concept of integers
Integers include the positive and negative whole numbers including zero. An integer cannot be a decimal or fractional part with it.
The set of integers is denoted by the numbers
Step-2 – Identify the location of point
The point P is 8 units to the left of the origin and 6 units up. So, the point must lie in the second quadrant.
In Quadrant II, the sign of the x coordinate be negative and the sign of the y-coordinate is positive.
Step-3 – Conclusion
Consider the point is 8 units to the left of the origin and 6 units up, signifies 8 to be negative along axis and 6 to be positive along axis.
Therefore,
The coordinate of the point is .
Hence, option (d) is correct.
