The correct option regarding the error in calculating the length of segment AB is given as follows:

There should have been a subtraction instead of an addition, and the correct length is of 3.5 units.

<h3>Where are points A and B?</h3>

Researching the problem on the internet, it is found that points A and B are on a number line, with coordinates given as follows:

  • A: 1.
  • B: 4.5.

<h3>What is the length of the segment?</h3>

The length of the segment is the absolute value of the subtraction of the endpoints, hence:

L = |4.5 - 1| = |1 - 4.5| = 3.5.

The error is that:

There should have been a subtraction instead of an addition, and the correct length is of 3.5 units.

From reading the problem we see that y = 0 and x = 16.
To find the correct equation, simple plug in the values for x and y for each equation and see which equation is true.

The correct answer is 5x + 4y = 80


5(16) + 4(0) =80
80 + 0 = 80
