Solution
In the following figure, the point identified by the coordinates (–5, 3) is L.
Explanation:
The point (-5, 3) has a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate, which places it in the second quadrant. Its perpendicular distance from the y-axis is 5 units, and from the x-axis is 3 units. Therefore, the required point is L.
