Question

which point has coordinates (4 1/2, - 2 1/2)?

Explanation:

Step1: Locate x - coordinate

The x - coordinate of the point is $4\frac{1}{2}=4.5$. Move 4.5 units to the right of the origin along the x - axis.

Step2: Locate y - coordinate

The y - coordinate of the point is $- 2\frac{1}{2}=-2.5$. Move 2.5 units down from the x - axis position found in Step 1.

Step3: Identify the point

Based on the above two steps, find the corresponding point on the graph.

Answer:

(Assuming there are named points on the graph, you would identify the specific point that matches the above - described location. Since no named points are given in the text, the general process to find the point is as above. If there were points like A, B, C etc. on the graph, you would state which one has the coordinates $(4\frac{1}{2},-2\frac{1}{2})$)
