the coordinates of an ordered pair have opposite signs. in which quadrants must the ordered pair lie? explain.
1 answer
The ordered pair must lie in either the second or the fourth quadrant. This is because in the second quadrant, the x-coordinate is negative and the y-coordinate is positive, while in the fourth quadrant, the x-coordinate is positive and the y-coordinate is negative. In both quadrants, the signs of the coordinates are opposite, and therefore the ordered pair must lie in one of these two quadrants.
