Question

In which quadrant or on which axis do each of the points (-2,4) , (3,-1) ,(-1,0), (1,2) and

(-3,-5) lie? Verify your answer by locating them on the cartesian plane.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

cartesian plane :

quadrant 1 : both x and y are positive

quadrant 2 : x is negative, y is positive

quadrant 3 : both x and y are negative

quadrant 4 : x is positive and y is negative

(-2,4)......we have x is negative and y is positive...so we are in quadrant 2

(3,-1)....we have x is positive and y is negative...in quadrant 4

(-1,0) ...if u have a 0 in ur points, they do not lie in any quadrant because they are located on an axis....this is located on axis x

(1,2)....both are positive....located in quadrant 1

(-3,-5)...both are negative.....quadrant 3
