Solution

The circle cuts the x-axis at points where y=0. The equation of a circle with center at (h, k) and radius r is (x-h)² + (y-k)² = r².

Given that the center of the circle C is at (3,0) and the radius is 5 units, the equation of the circle is (x-3)² + y² = 5².

To find the x-coordinates where the circle cuts the x-axis, we set y=0 in the equation of the circle:

(x-3)² + 0² = 5² (x-3)² = 25 x-3 = ±√25 x-3 = ±5 x = 3 ± 5

So, the circle cuts the x-axis at x = 3+5 = 8 and x = 3-5 = -2. Therefore, the coordinates of the points where the circle cuts the x-axis are (8,0) and (-2,0).

The coordinate of point P is not specified in the question. More information is needed to determine the coordinate of point P.
