Question

graph the points (-3.5, 5) and (-5, -1) on the coordinate plane.
click to graph a point. click the point again to delete it.

Explanation:

Step1: Locate the x - coordinate

For the point \((-3.5,5)\), start at the origin. Move \(3.5\) units to the left along the x - axis (since \(x=-3.5\)). Then move \(5\) units up along the y - axis (since \(y = 5\)).
For the point \((-5,-1)\), start at the origin. Move \(5\) units to the left along the x - axis (since \(x=-5\)). Then move \(1\) unit down along the y - axis (since \(y=-1\)).

Answer:

Graph the point \((-3.5,5)\) by moving \(3.5\) units left on the x - axis and \(5\) units up on the y - axis. Graph the point \((-5,-1)\) by moving \(5\) units left on the x - axis and \(1\) unit down on the y - axis.
