Remark.

It's true. A line segment has a finite length. A line is infinitely long. It takes a lot of something that is finite to cover something that is infinite.

________ Suppose this is a part of a line. Just a part mind you.

.................... these are line segments. How many segments will it take to cover a line if you keep on extending the line to the line's "full" length?

Answer:

Not completely correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lines definition is axiomatic, greeks were the first society that gave a definition of this abstract concept.

According to Euclidean Geometry, lines are composed of an infinite number of points, not segments.

Which answer explains the correct way to move the decimal to find the quotient of 23.8 × 100?
natima [27]
The correct way to move the decimal to find the quotient is b. two places to the right.

This is because 100 has two zeroes in it, so you know that you have to move the decimal either two places to the right or two places to the left.  

100 is a positive number, and when multiplied by a positive number with a decimal, it makes an even larger number.  So, you would move 23.8 decimal place two places to the right.

What is the y-intercept, axis of symmetry and vertex of the following function.
tamaranim1 [39]
To find the y intercept you must substitute 0 into x.

F(x) = (-3x0) - (6x0) - 5
F(x) = -5

To find the axis of symmetry and vertex we use the formula -b/2a to find the x coordinate

x = 6/(-3x2)
x = 6/-6
x = -1

Now we need to find the y coordinate so we sub -1 into x.

F(x) = (-3x-1) - (6x-1) - 5
F(x) = 3 + 6 - 5
F(x) = 4

The axis of symmetry and vertex are (-1,4) and the y coordinate is -5. Hope this helps.
