Final answer:

The point (9, -10) would be located in Quadrant 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point (9, -10) would be located in Quadrant 4.

In a Cartesian coordinate system, Quadrant 4 is the bottom-right quadrant where both the x-coordinate and y-coordinate are positive.

Since the x-coordinate is 9 and the y-coordinate is -10, which is negative, the point would be located in Quadrant 4.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the 9. It goes to your right. It is on the plus x axis.

You are either in quad 1 or quad 4

We need the - 10 to decide which.

+ 10 would go up and that would mean quad 1

- 10 mean going down so you are in Quad 4
