A segment is bounded by two endpoints.
The two segments can have up to two common points
Assume the line segments are AB and CD where the length of AB is greater than the length of CD.
<u>The possibilities are:</u>
- <em>A point of segment CD lies on segment AB</em>
- <em>Both points of segment CD lie on segment AB.</em>
<em />
See attachment for both possibilities.
Hence, it is possible for the two segments to have two common points.

First calculate the function of x-2y=6:
x-2y=6 | - x
-2y=6-x | ÷ (-2)
y=0.5x-3
Now you have the function. Because the slope you search is parallel to this one, the slope is the same (in this case 0.5). A slope of 0.5 means for 2 steps to the right go one up. To define the function you are searching you have to find out the y intercept. For this take your point (-2|4). Now go as many steps to the right until you reach the y intercept or x=0 in this case you need 2 steps. So for 2 steps right you go one up. Now you have the y intercept (5).
The resulting function is: f(x) = 0.5+6.
