Question

What is true about the point (2, y)?

O If y = 3, then the point is in quadrant II.

If y = - 3, then the point is in quadrant IV.

If y = – 4, then the point is in quadrant I.

O If y = 2, then the point is in quadrant II.

Answer 1

Explanation:

In quadrant 1, the coordinates are (+,+)

In quadrant 2, the coordinates are (-,+)

In quadrant 3, the coordinates are (-,-)

In quadrant 4, the coordinates are (+,-)

The x-coordinate is called abscissa and y coordinate is called ordinate.

Option 2,

If y = - 3, then the point is in quadrant IV. Points wlil be (2,-3)

i.e. x is positive and y is negative.

So, option 2 is correct.
