The video tutorial explains the concept of distance along a directed line segment, focusing on partitioning and finding a fraction of the distance. It begins with an introduction to directed line segments, followed by setting up points A and B on a Cartesian plane. The tutorial then covers displacement and vector notation, and demonstrates how to calculate movement and partition the line segment. The main example involves finding the point that is 7/10 of the way from point A to point B. The video concludes with suggestions for practice and further exploration.

What is a directed line segment?

• A line that extends infinitely

• A line with no specific direction

• A line segment with no endpoints

• A line segment with a specified direction

What are the coordinates of point A?

• (-7, 4)

• (8, -6)

• (0, 0)

• (7, -4)

Why is direction important in a directed line segment?

• It determines the length of the segment

• It specifies the start and end points

• It changes the color of the segment

• It affects the thickness of the line

How do you find the midpoint of a line segment?

• Divide the coordinates by ten

• Add the coordinates and divide by two

• Multiply the coordinates by two

• Subtract the coordinates

What is the horizontal distance from A to B?

• 15

• 20

• 10

• 5

What does displacement refer to in this context?

• The time taken to move

• The change in position with direction

• The total distance traveled

• The speed of movement

What is the vector notation for the movement from A to B?

• {15, -10}

• <15, -10>

• (15, -10)

• [15, -10]

How do you calculate 7/10 of the movement from A to B?

• Add 7 to the vector

• Subtract 10 from the vector

• Multiply the vector by 10/7

• Multiply the vector by 7/10

What is the final point 7/10 of the way from A to B?

• (-3.5, 3)

• (7, -4)

• (3.5, -3)

• (0, 0)
