Answer 1

Answer:

d. Quadrant IV

Step-by-step explanation:

This point lies in the fourth quadrant.

To find the quadrant in which the point lies you have to look at the signs of its coordinates:

If both coordinates are positive, then the point lies in the first quadrant

If

x

<

0

and

y

>

then the point lies in the second quadrant

If both coordinates are negative then the point lies in the third quadrant

Finally if

x

>

0

and

y

<

0

then the point lies in the fourth quadrant.
