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.

The ordered pair \((-7, 11)\) consists of an x-coordinate of \(-7\) and a y-coordinate of \(11\).

  • The x-coordinate, \(-7\), is negative.
  • The y-coordinate, \(11\), is positive.

Based on the signs of the coordinates, the ordered pair \((-7, 11)\) is located in Quadrant II, where the x-values are negative and the y-values are positive.

So, the correct response is:

II
