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

Question

Accepted Answer

In a coordinate system:  
- The **x-coordinate** determines the horizontal position (positive for right, negative for left).  
- The **y-coordinate** determines the vertical position (positive for up, negative for down).

For the point (-2, 3):  
- The x-coordinate is **negative**, indicating the point is to the **left** of the origin.  
- The y-coordinate is **positive**, indicating the point is **above** the origin.

Thus, the point (-2, 3) lies in the **second quadrant**, which corresponds to option **(b)**.
