Answer: The given complex number 6-8i will be located in fourth quadrant

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a coordinate plane and which consists of four quadrants

In first quadrant both the coordinates (x,y) are positive can be represented as (+,+)

In second quadrant x-axis will be negative and y-axis will be positive and represented as (-,+)

In third quadrant both the coordinates will be negative and represented as (-,-)

In fourth quadrant x-axis will be positive and y-axis will be negative and represented as (+,-)

Our required complex number will lie in fourth quadrant since, its x-axis is positive and y-axis is negative.
