The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will plot the points A(7, 6) and B(7, -6) on graph paper, join them, and find the coordinates where line AB intersects the x-axis. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Plot Point A (7, 6)**: - Start at the origin (0, 0). - Move 7 units to the right along the x-axis (since the x-coordinate is 7). - From there, move 6 units up (since the y-coordinate is 6). - Mark this point as A. 2. **Plot Point B (7, -6)**: - Again, start at the origin (0, 0). - Move 7 units to the right along the x-axis (the x-coordinate is still 7). - From there, move 6 units down (since the y-coordinate is -6). - Mark this point as B. 3. **Join Points A and B**: - Draw a straight line connecting points A and B. This line is vertical since both points share the same x-coordinate (7). 4. **Find the Intersection with the x-axis**: - The x-axis is where the y-coordinate is 0. - Since the line AB is vertical and passes through x = 7, it will intersect the x-axis at the point where y = 0. - Therefore, the coordinates of the intersection point are (7, 0). ### Final Answer: The coordinates of the point where line AB cuts the x-axis are (7, 0).
