Question

where is (2, -6) located on the coordinate plane?
choose 1 answer:
a quadrant i

Explanation:

Step1: Determine the sign of coordinates

In a coordinate plane, for a point \((x,y)\):

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

For the point \((2,-6)\), \(x = 2>0\) and \(y=-6<0\)

Answer:

Quadrant IV
