Answer:

False. (7, -8) is in the fourth quadrant.

Explanation:

(7, -8) is in the fourth quadrant because it uses a positive sign and then a negative sign (+, -). You can easily identify which quadrant a pair of coordinates is in by the signs they use. The first quadrant is for coordinates with two positive signs (+, +), the second for a negative then a positive (-, +), the third for two negatives (-, -), and the fourth for a positive followed by a negative (+, -). I hope this helps!
