Question

the graph shows the four quadrants of the coordinate plane.
point a is located at $(-5, 7)$.
complete the statement.
point a has an $x$-coordinate that is positive/negative/zero and a $y$-coordinate that is positive/negative/zero, so the point is located in quadrant/on axis

Explanation:

Step1: Identify x-coordinate sign

The x-coordinate of Point A is $-5$, which is negative.

Step2: Identify y-coordinate sign

The y-coordinate of Point A is $7$, which is positive.

Step3: Match to quadrant

Quadrant II contains points with negative $x$-values and positive $y$-values.

Answer:

Point A has an x-coordinate that is negative and a y-coordinate that is positive, so the point is located in Quadrant II.
