Correct option is (D) (3, 8)
y-coordinate of a point = Distance of that point from X-axis
\(\Rightarrow y=8\) (Given)
x-coordinate of a point = Distance of that point from Y-axis
\(\Rightarrow x=3\)
\(\therefore\) Point whose distance from X-axis is 8 units and distance from Y-axis is 3 units is denoted by (x, y) = (3, 8).
