how many quadrants have x value in a coordinate plane

1 answer

In a standard Cartesian coordinate plane, there are four quadrants. Each quadrant can have different signs for the x and y coordinates:

  1. Quadrant I: Both x and y are positive (x > 0, y > 0).
  2. Quadrant II: x is negative and y is positive (x < 0, y > 0).
  3. Quadrant III: Both x and y are negative (x < 0, y < 0).
  4. Quadrant IV: x is positive and y is negative (x > 0, y < 0).

So to answer your question, all four quadrants can have x values, but the sign of the x value varies depending on the quadrant.
