needing good explanation on what to do. HELP NEEDED ( i don't understand )

Question

What quadrant is the point (-9, 2) located?

Answer 1

So the first thing to note is that there are four quadrants.

Quadrant I is the top right of the graph, and the signs for that are (+,+).

Quadrant II is the top left of the graph, and the signs for that are (-,+).

Quadrant III is the bottom left of the graph, and the signs for that are (-,-).

Quadrant IV is the bottom right of the graph, and the signs for that are (+,-).

So for your point (-9,2), that would be located in Quadrant II because the signs are (-,+).

Hope this helps!
