Question

which point has coordinates $\left(-4\frac{1}{2},5\
ight)$?

Explanation:

Step1: Understand the coordinate system

In a coordinate system, the first number in the pair \((x,y)\) is the \(x -\)coordinate (horizontal), and the second number is the \(y -\)coordinate (vertical). Here \(x=-4\frac{1}{2}=-4.5\) and \(y = 5\).

Step2: Locate the point

We look for the vertical line corresponding to \(x=-4.5\). Then, on that vertical line, we look for the horizontal line corresponding to \(y = 5\).
