n points would divide a given line into n+1 segments.
Just assume that you have a line and you added a point to that line, this point would divide your line into two segments.
If you add two points to a line, these two points would divide your line into three segments.
So the number of segments is always greater that the number of points by 1.
The graph will be as shown in attached figure

<span>(2x-3)/x^2
if the number is –2
then
[2(-2) - 3] / (-2)^2
= (-4-3)/4
= -7/4
answer is
</span><span>D. -7/4</span>
