Answer:

Explanation:

First, we plot the point (-1,-3/2):

Then, we plot the point (-2,0):

Finally, we plot the point (-4,-3/2):

EXPLANATION :

- Start by plotting the point (-1, -3.5):

- Move 1 unit to the left of the origin (point (0,0)).

- Move 3.5 units down from there.

- Next, plot the point (1, 0):

- Move 1 unit to the right of the origin.

- Do not move up or down.

- Then, plot the point (-2, 0):

- Move 2 units to the left of the point (1,0).

- Do not move up or down.

- Finally, plot the point (-4, -3.5):

- Move 2 units to the left of the point (-2,0).

- Move 3.5 units down from there.

It should look like this:

(-1,-3.5)
