The quadrant that has negative x-values and positive y-values is Quadrant II. To understand this, let's first clarify what the quadrants are. In a Cartesian coordinate system, the x-axis represents the horizontal axis and the y-axis represents the vertical axis. The origin point (0,0) is where these two axes intersect.
Now, the quadrants are divided based on the signs of the x and y values of a point on the coordinate plane.
In Quadrant I, both the x and y values are positive (x > 0, y > 0).
In Quadrant II, the x values are negative and the y values are positive (x < 0, y > 0).
In Quadrant III, both the x and y values are negative (x < 0, y < 0).
In Quadrant IV, the x values are positive and the y values are negative (x > 0, y < 0).
Since we are looking for negative x-values and positive y-values, the correct answer is Quadrant II.
