Question

13.
coordinate grid image with points a, b, c, d, e, f
what quadrant is point c in?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Quadrant Rules

In a coordinate plane, quadrants are defined by the signs of \(x\) (horizontal) and \(y\) (vertical) coordinates:

• Quadrant I: \(x>0, y>0\)
• Quadrant II: \(x<0, y>0\)
• Quadrant III: \(x<0, y<0\)
• Quadrant IV: \(x>0, y<0\)

Step2: Determine Point C's Coordinates

From the graph, point C is at \(x = -6\) (negative, left of origin) and \(y = -5\) (negative, below origin).

Step3: Match to Quadrant

Since \(x<0\) and \(y<0\), point C fits Quadrant III’s sign rule.

Answer:

Quadrant III
