Question

The following student found the midpoint of two points. Review the student’s work as shown below. Is the student’s work correct? Select the correct choices to complete the sentences.





2 points The student’s work is: (correct, incorrect)

2 points The error was made in (step one the formula, step two simplifying, step three answer).


Write your answer below.

Answer 1

To provide a review of the student's work, I would need to see the specific steps and calculations they used to find the midpoint of two points. Generally speaking, the formula for finding the midpoint (M) of two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by:

M = ((x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2)

If the student correctly applied this formula, their work would be considered correct. However, if there was an error in applying the formula, simplifying, or calculating the final answer, they would be deemed incorrect.

Please provide the student's steps or calculations for a more specific analysis.
