Two straight infinitely long current carrying wires are kept along Z-axis at the coordinates (
) and (
) respectively, as shown in the figure. The current in each of the wire is equal and along negative Z-axis (into the plane of the paper).

The variation of magnetic field on the X-axis will be approximately
