Question 57282:  Can someone help me give the coordiates of the point on the graph I will try to explain to you the best I can?
 
I have the x-axis and y-axis.  Where they meet in the middle going right of y the bar numbers go 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and on the right side of the y-axis from the middle of y and on the left side it goes -1, -2, -3, -4, -5
 
The point that I need to coordinate is on the bottom right of x and right of the y-axis bar, 5 bars down and 4 bars over from the y-axis bar.
 
 Thanks so much if you can help.

You can  put this solution on YOUR website! Hi Ashley, 
You know that I try to answer your questions if I understand them. 
: 
I have the x-axis and y-axis.  Where they meet in the middle going right of y the bar numbers go 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and on the right side of the y-axis from the middle of y and on the left side it goes -1, -2, -3, -4, -5
 
The point that I need to coordinate is on the bottom right of x and right of the y-axis bar, 5 bars down and 4 bars over from the y-axis bar. 
: 
The left and right values are x's and the up and down values are y's.  We list our coordinates as (x,y)  If I'm understanding you correctly, you have a point that is 4 units to the right of the origin (the place where the x and y-axis cross), this would make your x=4, and five units down would make your y=-5.  Therefore the coordinate is (4,-5). 
Happy Calculating!!!
