Question

Find the equation of the line which satisfy the given condition:

Write the equations for the x and y-axes.

Answer in Brief

Solution

The y-coordinate of every point on the x-axis is 0.

Therefore, the equation of the x-axis is y = 0.

The x-coordinate of every point on the y-axis is 0.

Therefore, the equation of the y-axis is x = 0.
