Question

which point is located at (2, 1)?
a m
b n
c o
d p

Explanation:

Step1: Understand coordinate system

In a coordinate \((x, y)\), \(x\) is horizontal (x - axis) and \(y\) is vertical (y - axis).

Step2: Locate \(x = 2\), \(y = 1\)

Find \(x = 2\) on x - axis, \(y = 1\) on y - axis. The point at this intersection is \(P\). Check options:

• A. \(M\): Coordinates \((1, 2)\) (x = 1, y = 2)
• B. \(N\): Coordinates \((3, 4)\) (x = 3, y = 4)
• C. \(O\): Coordinates \((5, 2.8)\) (approx, x = 5, y≈2.8)
• D. \(P\): Coordinates \((2, 1)\) (x = 2, y = 1)

Answer:

D. \(P\)
