The points (–5, 6) and (5, 6) are vertices of a hexagon. The line segment joining the two points forms one of the sides of the hexagon. Which statement explains the segment formed by these endpoints?

The information about the points being vertices that make up a line to represent the side of a hexagon is irrelevant, as we are only looking for the distance of a line based on their x and y coordinates.

Look at the point's x and y coordinates:

First point:

x = -5, y = 6

Second point:

x = 5, y = 6

You'll notice that the y-coordinate for both points is the same (6 = 6). This means that the segment created by the points will be horizontal, since there is only movement on the x-axis if you trace the segment from point to point.

To find the distance between the two points, we'll only need to subtract the first point's x-coordinate from the second:

5 - (-5) = 5 + 5 = 10

The answer will be the following statement:

Since the y-coordinates are the same, the segment is horizontal, and the distance between the points is 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the y-coordinates are the same, the segment is horizontal, and the distance between the points is 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

answer: -1

step-by-step explanation:

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.
