If x < 0 and y < 0, what guadrant is the point (x, y) located

Third quadrant

This can be written as Q3 or QIII

This quadrant is in the southwest.

Explanation:

There are 4 quadrants on the xy plane. They are separated by the x and y axis. Think of it like 4 separate rooms.

Quadrants 1 and 4 have x,y that are the same sign together. Either they're both positive together, or they're both negative together. Quadrants 2 and 3 have x,y as opposite signs (one is positive and the other is negative).
