- B 4th qudratant
- C 1st and 2nd and 4th qudratants
- D 1st qudratant
Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Let the point is P(x, y).
According to the question, the point P(x, y) is equidistance from both x and y axis.
|x| = |y|
x = y
So the point P lies on the either x = y or x = - y line. And point P(x, y) also lies on the straight line 3x + 5y = 15.
Form the graph, you can see the point P can either be on 1st qudratant or 2nd qudratant.
