What is the length of a segment with endpoints at (-3, 4) and (4, 4)?
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

D. 7

Explanation:

distance from (x_1, y_1) to (x_2, y_2) =

²√ (x_2 – x_1)² + (y_2 – y_1)².

Since y_1 and y_2 are the same, the segment length is simply the difference between x_2 and x_1.

thus the length of a segment with endpoints at (-3, 4) and (4, 4) is 4 - (-3) = 4 + 3 = 7.

Eventually he makes his way back to Penelope but she isn’t convinced is really him. So she tells him that he can sleep outside her room on the bed on the bed that Odysseus carved.
