The ordered pair (x, -9) is located in Quadrant IV when x is a negative value. Therefore, the correct response is -7.

Apologies for the incorrect response. You are right, I made a mistake in the previous response.

To determine the quadrant in which the ordered pair (x, -9) is located, we need to consider the signs of the x and y coordinates.

Quadrant IV is characterized by positive x and negative y coordinates.

Since the y-coordinate is given as -9, it is negative. Therefore, to place the ordered pair in Quadrant IV, we need a positive x-coordinate.

Out of the given options, -7 and -1 are negative values for x, so they cannot be in Quadrant IV.

0 is neither positive nor negative, so it is not in Quadrant IV.

Therefore, the value of x that corresponds to Quadrant IV is 8.
