Point A has coordinate −4 and point B has coordinate 4. A student was asked to find the coordinate of the point P that is 2/3 of the distance from A to B. The student said the coordinate of point P is −1.3.
1. Without doing any calculations, how can you tell that the student made an error? One can tell that the student made an error because point P must be...
A.) Closer to point A then point B.
B.) Closer to point B then point A.
C.) On point B.
2.so the coordinate of point P should be...
A.) Positive.
B.) Negative.
3.What error did the student make?
The student found the coordinate of the point that is 2/3 of the distance from..
A.) B to P
B.) A to B
C.) B to A
