Answer:

The point made by the coordinates 10 degrees south and 70 degrees west would lie on the continent of South America.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The continent of South America lies between 18 degrees north latitude and 56 degrees south latitude.
  • The point made by the confluence of '10 degrees' south latitude and '70 degrees west longitude' falls on the western side of the South American continent in the country of Brazil, close to the border between 'Peru and Brazil'.
