The graph shows the four quadrants of the coordinate plane.An XY coordinate plane divided into four quadrants. The x axis runs from left to right. The y axis runs up and down. Quadrant 1 is the top right quadrant. Quadrant 2 is the top left quadrant. Quadrant 3 is the bottom left quadrant. Quadrant 4 is the bottom right quadrant. y x Quadrant I Quadrant II Quadrant III Quadrant IV Where is (−2.5,2) located on the coordinate plane?Choose 1 answer:Choose 1 answer:(Choice A) Quadrant I AQuadrant I (Choice B) Quadrant II BQuadrant II (Choice C) Quadrant III CQuadrant III (Choice D) Quadrant IV DQuadrant IV (Choice E) x -axisE x -axis(Choice F) y -axisF y -axis18 of 22
The correct answer is: Choice B Quadr II.
**Explanation
point \((-2.5, 2)\) has a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate. In the coordinate plane, Quadrant II contains points where the x-value is negative and the y-value is positive. Therefore, \((-2., 2)\) located in Quadrant II.
Steps:
- The x-coordinate \(-2.5\), is less than zero, the point is to the left of y-axis.
- The-coordinate is \(2\ which is greater than zero, indicating the point is above the x.
3. Combining, the point is in the top-left section of the plane, which isant II.Hence, the point \((-2., 2)\) is in Quadrant II.
