The length of the segment is 8.5 units

How to determine the length of the segment?

The endpoints are given as:

Endpoints = -2.5 and 6

The length of the segment is calculated as:

Length = |6 - -2.5|

Evaluate the sum

Length = |8.5|

Remove the absolute bracket

Length = 8.5

Hence, the length of the segment is 8.5 units
