Question

Use the image to answer the question.

A coordinate plane shows the x-axis and y-axis labeled, both ranging from negative 6 to 6 in increments of 1. Quadrants 1 to 4 are labeled. Quadrant 1 is labeled with left parenthesis positive sign comma positive sign right parenthesis. Quadrant 2 is labeled with left parenthesis negative sign comma positive sign right parenthesis. Quadrant 3 is labeled with left parenthesis negative sign comma negative sign right parenthesis. Quadrant 4 is labeled with left parenthesis positive sign comma negative sign right parenthesis.

Answer 1

The ordered pair (6, -7) has a positive x-coordinate (6) and a negative y-coordinate (-7). Based on the coordinates:

- Quadrant I has positive x and positive y.
- Quadrant II has negative x and positive y.
- Quadrant III has negative x and negative y.
- Quadrant IV has positive x and negative y.

Since the x-coordinate is positive and the y-coordinate is negative, the ordered pair (6, -7) is located in Quadrant IV.

So the answer is:

IV
