Question

plot the point $(-2,-6)$. click on the graph to plot a point. click a point to delete it.

Explanation:

Step1: Locate the x - coordinate

The x - coordinate of the point \((-2,-6)\) is \(-2\). On the x - axis, move 2 units to the left of the origin (since \(x=-2<0\)).

Step2: Locate the y - coordinate

The y - coordinate of the point \((-2,-6)\) is \(-6\). From the point on the x - axis (where \(x = - 2\)), move 6 units down (since \(y=-6<0\)).

Answer:

The point \((-2,-6)\) is plotted 2 units to the left of the origin on the x - axis and 6 units down from that position on the y - axis.
