Answer:

  no, when x is even, y will be an integer, not a fraction

Step-by-step explanation:

We observe that the coefficient of x is 1/2, so the x-term will be an integer only if x is a multiple of 2 (even). If the x-term is an integer, y will be an integer.

The given point has x even (-4), so we expect y to be an integer. The given point has y=1/2, not an integer, so the point will NOT be on the graph.
