Question

which point is located in quadrant iv?

options:
(-8, 6)
(-8, -6)
(8, -6)
(8, 6)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Quadrant IV Rules

In a coordinate plane, Quadrant IV has \(x>0\) (positive x - coordinate) and \(y < 0\) (negative y - coordinate).

Step2: Analyze Each Option

• For \((-8,6)\): \(x=-8<0\), \(y = 6>0\) → Quadrant II.
• For \((-8,-6)\): \(x=-8<0\), \(y=-6<0\) → Quadrant III.
• For \((8,-6)\): \(x = 8>0\), \(y=-6<0\) → Quadrant IV.
• For \((8,6)\): \(x = 8>0\), \(y = 6>0\) → Quadrant I.

Answer:

C. \((8, - 6)\) (assuming the options are labeled as A. \((-8,6)\), B. \((-8,-6)\), C. \((8,-6)\), D. \((8,6)\))
