Identify the ordered pair represented by the point located at Quadrant III, 4 units left of the origin and 3 units down.
(4, 3)

(3, -4)
(-3, 4)
Answer explanation
The point is in Quadrant III, meaning both coordinates are negative. Moving 4 units left of the origin gives -4 for the x-coordinate, and moving 3 units down gives -3 for the y-coordinate. Thus, the ordered pair is (-4, -3).
