Answer 1

In a standard Cartesian coordinate system, the plane is divided into four quadrants by the x and y axes. Here is how the quadrants are arranged and which signs (+ or -) correspond to x and y values in each quadrant:

- Quadrant I (top-right): x > 0, y > 0 (positive x-values and positive y-values)
- Quadrant II (top-left): x < 0, y > 0 (negative x-values and positive y-values)
- Quadrant III (bottom-left): x < 0, y < 0 (negative x-values and negative y-values)
- Quadrant IV (bottom-right): x > 0, y < 0 (positive x-values and negative y-values)

Given this arrangement, the two quadrants with negative x-values are:

Quadrant II and Quadrant III
