Question

Point A is located in which quadrant?

On a coordinate plane, point A is at (negative 3, 5).
Quadrant I
Quadrant II
Quadrant III
Quadrant IV

Answer 1

B / Quadrant II

Explanation:

Answer 2

Option 2: Quadrant II.

Explanation:

Given the location of Point A at (-3, 5):

This implies that x = -3 and y = 5 represent the coordinates of Point A. In reference to the Coordinate Plane:

Quadrant I (x, y): This quadrant comprises of positive x- and y-values.

Quadrant II (-x, y): This quadrant comprises of negative x-values and positive y-values.

Quadrant III (-x, -y): This quadrant comprises of negative x- and y-values.

Quadrant IV (x, -y): This quadrant comprises of positive x-values and negative y-values.

Since the coordinates of Point A is (-3, 5), this matches the description of the points located in Quadrant II.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 2: Quadrant II.
