Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
In vector form, the equation of point p on the line can be written as ...
p = (-3, -4) +t(25 -(-3), 38 -(-4)) . . . . . for some scalar t
p = (-3, -4) +t(28, 42)
p = (-3, -4) +14t(2, 3)
where t takes on any value between 0 and 1.
If we let t = n/14 for some integer 0 ≤ n ≤ 14, then the coordinates of point p will be integers.
There are 15 values that n can have in the allowed range.
The caterpillar touches 15 points with integer coordinates.
2-1, 3-2, 4-3, 1*1, 1/7, any number of expressions fit the bill here.
