To graph the points from the provided table, we need to plot the coordinates \((x, y)\) given in each row. The table you've provided lists the following pairs of coordinates:

  • For \(x = -6\), \(y = 5\) \(\Rightarrow (-6, 5)\)
  • For \(x = -4\), \(y = 2\) \(\Rightarrow (-4, 2)\)
  • For \(x = -2\), \(y = -1\) \(\Rightarrow (-2, -1)\)

Here are the steps to graph these points:

  1. Draw the x-axis (horizontal line) and y-axis (vertical line) on a coordinate plane.
  2. Mark the points:
    • Point 1: Locate \((-6, 5)\), which is 6 units to the left of the origin (0, 0) and 5 units up.
    • Point 2: Locate \((-4, 2)\), which is 4 units to the left of the origin and 2 units up.
    • Point 3: Locate \((-2, -1)\), which is 2 units to the left of the origin and 1 unit down.

After plotting these points, you will have the three key coordinates marked on your graph. Make sure to label the axes and the points for clarity.
