Question

1. in which quadrant on a coordinate plane will the point (-2, -5) be?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall quadrant rules

In the coordinate plane:

• 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: Analyze the given point

For the point \((-2,-5)\), \(x=-2<0\) and \(y = - 5<0\)

Answer:

The point \((-2,-5)\) is in Quadrant III.
