The answer is A because when go left on a graph, the number becomes negative. So the x is -2 which gives us only 2 answers to choose from. Now when you go up, the number becomes positive so this leads us with one answer which is A. Hope this helps!

The answer is a.  (-2, 4). The horizontal line is the x-axis, and the vertical line is the y-axis, so the coordinate points would be (x, y) and (-2, 4) fit those coordinates. Hope this helps! :)
