Answer:

[see below]

Step-by-step explanation:

A line is a straight path of points that has no start and no end. The line has an arrow on each end.

A line segment is part of a line. They have a start and an end. The line segments have a point on each end. You can use a line segment to make polygons and make calculations about them.

Hope this helps.

Answer:

A line segment has two endpoints. It contains these endpoints and all the points of the line between them. You can measure the length of a segment, but not of a line. Line segments are only a line that goes from one point to another, and lines go on forever. However, a line segment is also part of a line.

Hope this helps!

During an Apollo moon landing, reflecting panels were placed on the moon. This allowed Earth-based astronomers to shoot laser be

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The distance between the astronomers and the moon was $7.56*10^{8]$ meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the speed is the distance divided by the time, so:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

In this problem, we have that:

The reflected laser beam was observed by the astronomers 2.52 s after the laser pulse was sent. This means that $t = 2.52$ .

If the speed of light is 3.00 times 10^8 m/s, what was the distance between the astronomers and the moon?

We have that $v = 3*10^{8}$ m/s.

We have to find d. So:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

$d = vt$

$d = 3*10^{8}*2.52$

$7.56*10^{8]$

The distance between the astronomers and the moon was $7.56*10^{8]$ meters.

45% of 40 is 18% of what number?

alexandr1967 [171]

So 45% OF 40 is
45% * 40
0.45 * 40
that is 18

18 is 18% of what number?
18 = 18% * x
18 = 0.18 * x
divide both sides by 0.18
100 = x
45 % of 40, which is 18, and is 18% of 100.

Hope this helps

Which coordinate pair identifies a point in the third quadrant of the coordinate plane?

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

D, (-6,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

the first quadrant of a coordinate plane has the x coordinate being a negative number, and the y coordinate being a positive number

the second quadrant of a coordinate plane has the x and y coordinates being a positive number

the third quadrant of a coordinate plane has the x and y coordinates being a negative number

the fourth quadrant of a coordinate plane has the x coordinate being a positive number, and the y coordinate being a negative number

i have attached a graph showing the quadrants for a visual point of view
