Example Question #1 : Graphing An Ordered Pair
Which quadrants can include the point if nonzero numbers and have the same sign?
Either Quadrant I or Quadrant IV
Either Quadrant I or Quadrant II
Either Quadrant II or Quadrant III
Either Quadrant II or Quadrant IV
Either Quadrant I or Quadrant III
Either Quadrant I or Quadrant IV
If and have the same sign, then , and the point has a positive -coordinate. The sign of is the same as the common sign of and . Therefore, only the -coordinate restricts the possibilities.
The points witn positive -coordinates are in Quadrant I and Quadrant IV.
Example Question #102 : Coordinate Geometry
Which quadrant or axis can include the point ?
Quadrant IV
The -axis
Quadrant III
Quadrant II
Quadrant I
Quadrant I
The ordered pair consists of a positive -coordinate and a positive -coordinate. The only quadrant that consists entirely of positive - and -coordinates is Quadrant I.
Example Question #1031 : Gmat Quantitative Reasoning
Which quadrant or axis contains the point ?
The -axis
Quadrant III
Quadrant II
The -axis
Quadrant I
The -axis
The ordered pair consists of a positive -coordinate and a -coordinate of . The only part of the coordinate plane on which all points have a zero -coordinate is the -axis.
Example Question #22 : How To Graph An Ordered Pair
Which of the following ordered pairs is in Quadrant III?
By definition, only Quadrant III contains ordered pairs that have both negative - and -coordinates.
Example Question #103 : Coordinate Geometry
Which quadrant or axis includes the point ?
Quadrant II
Quadrant I
The -axis
Quadrant IV
Quadrant III
Quadrant II
The ordered pair has a negative -coordinate and a positive -coordinate. By definition, all ordered pairs with negative -coordinates and a positive -coordinates exist in Quadrant II.
Example Question #108 : Graphing
Which quadrant or axis includes the point ?
Quadrant III
The -axis
The -axis
Quadrant I
Quadrant II
The -axis
The ordered pair has a zero -coordinate and a nonzero -coordinate. By definition, all ordered pairs with zero -coordinates and nonzero -coordinates is on the -axis.
Example Question #104 : Coordinate Geometry
Which of the following ordered pairs is in Quadrant I?
None of these coordinates
By definition, all ordered pairs with positive -coordinates and positive -coordinates are in Quadrant I. Therefore, the only ordered pair in this quadrant is .
Example Question #105 : Coordinate Geometry
In which quadrant is the point ?
Quadrant II
Quadrant I
Quadrant III
Quadrant IV
Quadrant II
The quadrants are numbered as follows:
The point (-2,3) has a negative x coordinate, so the point is on the left side of the y-axis, and a positive y-coordinate, so the point is above the x-axis.
That places it in quadrant II.
Example Question #21 : How To Graph An Ordered Pair
What are the coordinates of the two points that make up the line segment below? The ordered pairs are in order from left to right.
The scale on the graph is unit. You have to go to the left of zero, which means the x-coordinate is negative. You also have to go down, so the y-coordinate is negative. The correct coordinates that make up the line segment are .
Example Question #23 : How To Graph An Ordered Pair
What ordered pair is shown below?
The x-coordinate is the first one listed, and the y-coordinate is the second coordinate in the parentheses. You have to go either left or right with the x-coordinate, and the y-coordinate is the one on the vertical axis.
The point shown is in the IV quadrant, which means that the x-coordinate is positive, and the y-coordinate is negative.
The only point that fulfills those standards is .
