(01.02 HC)Morris is showing his work in simplifying (−6.7 + 4.3) − 1.2. Step 1: (4.3 − 6.7) − 1.2
Step 2: 4.3 − (6.7 + 1.2)
Step 3: 4.3 − (7.9)
Step 4: −3.6

Which statement is true?

In step 1, Morris used the commutative property.
In step 2, Morris used the distributive property.
In step 3, Morris used the associative property.
In step 4, Morris's answer is incorrect.

In step 3, Morris used the associative property.

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)

the thermometer is precise but not accurate
