Question

which quadrant has points with negative x - coordinates and negative y - coordinates? quadrant i quadrant ii quadrant iii quadrant iv

Explanation:

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

Since we are looking for the quadrant with negative \(x\) - coordinates (\(x<0\)) and negative \(y\) - coordinates (\(y < 0\)), we check the above conditions.

Answer:

Quadrant III
