In which quadrant P(2, -3) lies _____?
- 4th
- 3rd
- 2nd
- None of these
Explanation
In the Cartesian coordinate system:
- 1st quadrant: (+, +)
- 2nd quadrant: (-, +)
- 3rd quadrant: (-, -)
- 4th quadrant: (+, -)
Given P(2, -3), the x-coordinate is positive (+) and the y-coordinate is negative (-), so it lies in the 4th quadrant.
