Solution

To find the location of the point on the number line that is 1/2 of the way from A = 2 to B = 17, you need to find the midpoint between these two points.

Step 1: Find the distance between the two points. The distance between A and B is B - A = 17 - 2 = 15.

Step 2: Find half of this distance. Half of this distance is 15 / 2 = 7.5.

Step 3: Add this to the starting point (A = 2) to find the midpoint. The midpoint is A + (B - A) / 2 = 2 + 7.5 = 9.5.

However, since the options are all integers, it seems like there might be a mistake in the question or the options. None of the options match the calculated answer.
