If x is negative and y is zero the point would be located on the x-axis.

Answer:

X-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • We have point which coordinates are (a,b)
  • The value of a is negative.
  • The value of b is zero.

Now, remember that all coordinates with the form (a,0), represents points on the x-axis, because the y-coordinate is zero.

In this case, we have negative horizontal coordinates and a null vertical coordinate, like (-a,0).

This points is on the x-axis, because y-value is null. Actually, it's on the negative part of x-axis, because its horizontal coordinate is negative.

Therefore, the right answer is x-axis.
