In classical Cartesian algebra, the x axis is defined as a horizontal number line defining the distance from a zero point called the origin. The y axis is a vertical line de â¦ fining the vertical distance from the same origin. This system has been adapted to define axes on any number of graphing systems, from Microsoft Excel to modern machine tools.
