Apage in johanie’s workbook is torn, and one of the questions is cut off. she can read only the first part of the question:
“in which quadrant would you find point p if the coordinates of p are (–5, ”
assuming that p is not on an axis, what are the possible answers to this question?
a. quadrant i or quadrant ii
b. quadrant ii or quadrant iii
c. quadrant ii or quadrant iv
d. quadrant iii or quadrant iv

B. Quadrant II or III

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that, the first part of the question is 'In which quadrant would you find the point P if the co-ordinates are (-5, .. '

Assuming, we are talking about x-y axis where the point P is not on the axis.

The only possibility for the x co-ordinate to be -5 is if the point lies in the 2nd or 3rd quadrant.

for e.g. In 2nd quadrant, the point can be (-5,3) and in 3rd qudrant the point can be (-5,-4).

Hence, option B is correct.
