A line segment is 20 units long. The line segment is translated up 6 units and left 8 units. The length of the resulting line segment is either 4 or 20 or 34 units because translations
decrease or increase or preserve length.

Is the resulting lin segment 4 or 20 or 34? And do the translations decrease or increase or preserve? That is my question please help me.

The length of the resulting line segment is 20 units and the length of a line segment is preserved on translation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given length of the line segment is 20 units.

The line segment is translated up 6 units and left 8 units.

Here, the line segment is translated, so the whole line segment is at a new position after translation, there is no change in the length of the line.

So, the length of the line segment is preserved on translation.

After translation, the length of the line remains unchanged.

So, the length of the resulting line segment is 20 units.

answer:   14

step-by-step explanation:          

pu you stank bo u ugly bo lol

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)
