Question

Find the length of a line segment with endpoints of 19 and –39. A. –58 B. –20 C. 20 D. 58

Answer 1

19 - (-39) = 19 + 39 = 58

length of a line segment is 58 units.

Answer 2

Option D, 58

Explanation:

Line segment having end points are 19 and -39

So total length of line segments having end points of 19 and (-39) = distance from origin to one end at (19) + distance of another end from origin

= 19 + 39

= 58

Option D, 58 is the answer.
