Read each question carefully and provide your answer in the space provided. For graphing questions, plot the points accurately on the coordinate plane.

1. In which quadrant do both the x and y coordinates have positive values?

2. If a point has a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate, which quadrant is it located in?

3. The point (-5, -2) lies in which quadrant?

Quadrant I

Quadrant II

Quadrant III

Quadrant IV

4. A point (x, y) where x > 0 and y < 0 is located in which quadrant?

Quadrant I

Quadrant II

Quadrant III

Quadrant IV

5. Plot the following points on the coordinate plane below and label them:

A = (3, 4)

B = (-2, 5)

C = (-4, -3)

D = (5, -1)

6. For each point plotted in question 5, identify the quadrant it lies in:

Point A:

Point B:

Point C:

Point D:
