Question 1 of 10
What is the location of the point on the number line that is of the way from A = 2 to B = 17?
A. 12
B. 9
C. 10
D. 11
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.
