$(4, 0)$ $(4,0)$ is on the (positive) X-axis

Explanation:

A point is on the X-axis if and only if the $y$ $y$ component of its coordinate is equal to $0$ $0$ . That is $y = 0$ $y=0$ for all points on the X-axis and is only equal to $0$ $0$ for points on the X-axis.

For a point on the X-axis the point is
$XXX$ $color(white)("XXX")$ on the positive X-axis if the $x$ $x$ component is $> 0$ $> 0$
$XXX$ $color(white)("XXX")$ on the negative X-axis if the $x$ $x$ component is $< 0$ $< 0$
$XXX$ $color(white)("XXX")$ at the origin if the $x$ $x$ component is $= 0$ $= 0$
