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.

The possibilities are:

A point of segment CD lies on segment AB
Both points of segment CD lie on segment AB.

See attachment for both possibilities.

Hence, it is possible for the two segments to have two common points.

For each trip, a taxi company charges a fixed fee of $2.00 plus $0.75 for each 1/2 mile or fraction of 1/2 miles. If, for every

Answer:

E: 2.00 + 0.75 [ 2r]

Step-by-step explanation:

r represents the number of miles. For each 1/2 mile the taxi will charge and extra free of $0.75. Then, for each mile, the taxi will charge $0.75*2. For example:

For a trip of 1 mile the taxi will charge:

$2.00+$0.75*2

For a trip of 2 miles, the taxi will charge:

$2.00+0.75*4

For a trip of 10 miles, the taxi will charge:

$2.00+$0.75*20

Notice that the variable fee (the one that depends on the number of miles) is $0.75 times the double of miles. In each case the number of miles is multiplied by two. Then the correct answer is E: 2.00 + 0.75 [ 2r]
