By convention, the plane has four quadrants: (1) the part where x and y are both positive, (2) the diametrically opposite part where x and y are both negative, (3) the part where x is negative and y is positive, and (4) the part where x is positive and y is negative.
An ordered pair can be used to represent a point in any one of these four quadrants.
For instance, (1,5) is in quadrant (1) because both the x and y values are positive; (-3,5) is in quadrant (3) because the x value is negative and the y value is positive.
Ordered pairs that have a negative x and a positive y are in the second quadrant.
The x-coordinate comes first in an ordered pair.

A point, in two dimensional space, is defined as an ordered pair.
An ordered pair gives coordinates and location
Any ordered pair in the third quadrant has negative x and y values. So (-1,-1), for example, is the third quadrant.

An ordered pair that has a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate (-,+) would be plotted in which quadrant?
Quadrant 1: (1,5) Quadrant 2: (-2,3) Quadrant 3: (-3,-3) Quadrant 4:(4,-1)
true
quadrant one
An ordered pair located in quadrant III has both of its coordinates negative. For example, the pair (-3, -5) is in quadrant III, where the x-value is -3 and the y-value is -5. This quadrant is characterized by points where the x-coordinate is less than zero and the y-coordinate is also less than zero.
IV
false
Upper left quadrant
An ordered pair that has a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate would be plotted in the second quadrant (II). In this quadrant, the x-coordinate is negative and the y-coordinate is positive.
They are coordinates of points in the first quadrant, as well as on the semi-axes bounding the first quadrant.
