Question

Which of the following points abscissa is more than its ordinate by 2 ? 

A) (- 4, 2) 

B) (2, 4) 

C) (- 1, 1) 

D) (1,-1)

Answer 1

Correct option is (D) (1,-1)

(-4, 2); -4 < 2 \(\Rightarrow\) abscissa < ordinate

(2, 4); 2 < 4 \(\Rightarrow\) abscissa < ordinate

(-1, 1); -1 < 1 \(\Rightarrow\) abscissa < ordinate

(1, -1); 1 > -1 and 1 - (-1) = 2

i.e., abscissa is more than its ordinate by 2.

Answer 2

Correct option is   D)(1,-1)
