What is the length of line segment AB?
^ Picture Of The Problem
And i thought this was going to be a diagonal line, it's a horizontal line, so just take the difference in the X-values, take the x-value at the point A, and subtract that from the x-value at the point B
So line segment AB simply goes from -5 to 4. Can you figure out the length from -5 to 4?
*Cough* *Cough*Uhhh Sorry But Im Just Looking Like Omg What Is He Talking About.. Literally 0.0 Im Really Slow.. v_v
Still unsure what to do?
Exactly.. ^^
Start at x = -5 on the number line Then walk to x = 4 on the same number line How many whole steps do you take?
10 Steps?
For example, you take 2 whole steps to go from x = 3 to x = 5 |dw:1401498381503:dw|
10 is incorrect, but it's close
9**
good
So Its 9 Units?
if you don't want to draw, you can subtract to get the same thing 5 minus (-4) = 5 -(-4) = 5 + 4 = 9
yes, it is 9
Okaaaaaay. Omg Thank You So Much Ive Been On This Problem Foreveeer. <3
