Identifying Quadrants Quick Check 1 of 51 of 5 Items Question Use the image to answer the question. In which quadrant is the ordered pair (5, 9) located? (1 point) Responses III III I I IV IV II II Skip to navigation
The ordered pair (5, 9) is located in the first quadrant (I).
To identify the quadrant in which the ordered pair (5, 9) is located, we can use the following rules:
- Quadrant I: Positive x-values and positive y-values.
- Quadrant II: Negative x-values and positive y-values.
- Quadrant III: Negative x-values and negative y-values.
- Quadrant IV: Positive x-values and negative y-values.
Since the x-value of the ordered pair (5, 9) is positive (+5) and the y-value is also positive (+9), the ordered pair is located in Quadrant I.
To identify which quadrant the ordered pair (5, 9) is located in, we need to understand the quadrant system on a coordinate plane. The coordinate plane is divided into four quadrants, usually labeled as I, II, III, and IV.
Quadrant I is located in the upper right-hand corner, where both x and y values are positive.
Quadrant II is located in the upper left-hand corner, where x values are negative and y values are positive.
Quadrant III is located in the lower left-hand corner, where both x and y values are negative.
Quadrant IV is located in the lower right-hand corner, where x values are positive and y values are negative.
Now, let's analyze the given ordered pair (5, 9). In this case, the x value is positive (5), and the y value is also positive (9). Since both values are positive, we can conclude that the point lies in Quadrant I.
So, the answer to the question is: The ordered pair (5, 9) is located in Quadrant I.
