Answer:
3 – 5.5 + 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The number line described above is 3 – 5.5 + 1.5
Starting from our midpoint '0'
It moves 3 units to the right direction = +3
Then from that point '+3', it moves to '-2.5' which is 5.5 units to the left = -5.5. Then finally moves from '-2.5' to to '-1' which is 1.5 units towards the right direction = +1.5
Therefore, we finally have ;
+3 - 5.5 + 1.5

We can see that triangle JKM is a right triangle, with right angle at M. Segment KM is 6 units and segment MJ is 3 units. We can also see that KJ is hypotenuse of right triangle.
We will use Pythagoras theorem to solve for KJ as:
Now we will take positive square root on both sides:
Therefore, the length of line segment KJ is and option D is the correct choice.
