The horizontal or x-coordinate of a point in a two-dimensional system of Cartesian coordinates (8)
I believe the answer is:
abscissa
(Other definitions for abscissa that I've seen before include "X co-ordinate" , "X-coordinate on a graph" , "quantity on graph" , "Intercept" .)
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
