Question

If
`x < 0` and
`y < 0` ,where is the point (x,y) located?

a) quadrant I
b) quadrant II
c) quadrant III
d) quadrant IV​

Answer 1

c) quadrant III

Explanation:

I will be quick in this question:

`\text {For }y<0 \Rightarrow \text{Quadrant III or Quadrant IV}`

`\text {For }x<0 \Rightarrow \text{Quadrant II or Quadrant III}`

What both have in common?

So, the answer is Quadrant III.

Answer 2

Quadrant III

Explanation:

x < 0 is the area to the left of the y-axis, and y < 0 is the area beneath the x-axis. This point is therefore located in Quadrant III.
