On a coordinate plane, a point is 5 units to the left and 3.5 units down.

Bernadette says that the plotted point is located at (−5, −41
2
). What is Bernadette's error?

She switched the x- and y-coordinates.
Both coordinates should be positive values.
The x-coordinate should be 5.
The y-coordinate should be Negative 3 and one-half.
