Step-by-step explanation:
The problem is
In the coordinate plane, points A (-10; -18), B (35; 15), C (-5; 40) and D (1; -20) are given. Arrange these points in order according to the numbers of the coordinate quadrants: I, II, III, IV.
First of all, we need to analyse the signs of each variable at each quadrant.
Quadrant I: x-variable is positive and y-variable is positive.
Quadrant II: x-variable is negative and y-variable is positive.
Quadrant III: x-variable is negative and y-variable is negative.
Quadrant IV: x-variable is positive and y-variable is negative.
Now, according to the description above, the order of the given coordinates is
