1. The problem asks to identify the quadrant of the point (8,7). 2. Recall the quadrant rules for points $(x,y)$ in the Cartesian plane: - Quadrant I: $x > 0$ and $y > 0$ - Quadrant II: $x < 0$ and $y > 0$ - Quadrant III: $x < 0$ and $y < 0$ - Quadrant IV: $x > 0$ and $y < 0$ 3. For the point $(8,7)$, both $x=8$ and $y=7$ are positive. 4. Since $x > 0$ and $y > 0$, the point lies in Quadrant I. Final answer: The point $(8,7)$ lies in Quadrant I.
