option C

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the graph with the coordinates given, let's check and state some of the coordinates of each graph in the option:


\begin{gathered} \text{Given coordinates:} \\ (4(1)/(2),1)\text{ : x = 4}(1)/(2),\text{ y = 1} \\ (-2\text{ }(1)/(2),\text{ -2) : x = }-2\text{ }(1)/(2),\text{ y = -2} \end{gathered}

a) Coordinates: (-2, -3), (4, 4)

There is no point at -4 1/2 or -2 1/2 on this graph

b) coordinates: (-2, -3), (3, 1/2)

Tere is no x value at -4 1/2 or -2 1/2 on this graph

c) when x = -2 1/2, y = -2

when x = 4 1/2, y = 1

d) There is no x value at 4 1/2 on this graph. There is also no x value at -2 1/2 on this graph

Hence, the coordinate plane that contains points (4 1/2, 1) and (-2 1/2, -2) is option C
