Let's analyze the point A (5, 0) in the context of the statements provided:
-
A point A is 5 units to the right of the origin and up one unit.
- This statement is false. Point A (5, 0) is 5 units to the right of the origin (which is at (0, 0)) but it is not up at all; it is on the x-axis.
-
B the x-coordinate of point A is 5.
- This statement is true. The x-coordinate of point A is indeed 5.
-
C The y-coordinate of point A is 5.
- This statement is false. The y-coordinate of point A is 0, not 5.
-
D Point A is on the y-axis.
- This statement is false. Point A (5, 0) is not on the y-axis; the y-axis consists of points where the x-coordinate is 0.
-
E Point A is on the x-axis.
- This statement is true. Because the y-coordinate is 0, point A is indeed on the x-axis.
So, the true statements are B and E.
