It will install java in the folder from where you have executed this command.

Then you can set the path and java home in the .bash_profile file.

PATH=/usr/local/jdk-xxx/bin: (Rest of the entry)

JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk-xxx
export JAVA_HOME

After saving the .bash_profile file execute this file:
$ source .bash_profile

Thank you sanjaykatiyar. You're right.
Another way to do the stuff is to change the working directory using the ch command before proceeding
