I am submitting this for the second time, because the person that answered the first time definitely did not read my last two paragraphs. I need to DISCUSS, why the theorem works when adding a point D. I cannot draw a triangle and throw point D on it. I understand up to a certain point, but I have no idea what my professor is looking for in my answer. I have included her comments to hopefully help you help me. Thank you.
My question is based on the following:
Consider the axiomatic system and theorem below:
Axiom 1: If there is a pair of points, then they are on a line together.
Axiom 2: If there is a line, then there must be at least two points on it.
Axiom 3: There exist at least three distinct points.
Axiom 4: If there is a line, then not all of the points can be on it,
Theorem 1: Each point is on at least two distinct lines.
I have proven and understand up to 3 points, but I am struggling with explaining what happens with the 4th point.
If I use Axiom 3 to create 4th point D (the first 3 being A, B, and C), this will give me distinct lines AD, BD, CD, ADB, ADC, and BDC.
ADB, ADC, and BDC were all previously existing lines, and AD, BD, and CD are new lines, correct?
These are two separate cases because I cannot have point D on a previously existing line, and a new line, at the same time. I feel I understand up to this point. I need to discuss these two possibilities separately, but I am confused on how to go about that.
My professor states that I need to "discuss the different possibilities for how many distinct lines those are, we do not know if those are 3 distinct lines or not, this is where the different cases come in". I don't understand AT ALL what she is looking for.

A company produces individual resistors and transistors as well as computer chips. Each set of resistors requires 2 units of copper, 2 units of zinc, and 1 unit of glass to manufacture. Each set of transistors requires 3 units of copper, 3 units of zinc and 2 units of glass. Each set of computer chips requires 2 units of copper, 1 unit of zinc, and 3 units of glass. If there are 150 units of copper, 110 units of zinc, and 160 units of glass available, how many sets of resistors, transistors, and computer chips should the company manufacture to use all of its available supplies or raw materials? how many resistors, transistors and computer chips?

Janine is considering buying a water filter and a reusable water
bottle rather than buying bottled water. Will doing so save her
money?
First, determine what information you need to answer this
question,
How much water does Janine drink in a day? She normally drinks 4 bottles a day, each 16.9 ounces.
How much does a bottle of water cost? She buys 24-packs of 16.9 ounce bottles for $3.79.
How much does a reusable water bottle cost? About $10.
How long does a reusable water bottle last? Basically forever (or until you lose it).
How much does a water filter cost? How much water will they filter?
A faucet-mounted filter costs about $28 and includes one filter cartridge. Refill filters cost about $33 for a 3-pack. The box says each filter will filter up to 100 gallons (378 liters)
A water filter pitcher costs about $22 and includes one filter cartridge. Refill filters cost about $20 for a 4-pack. The box says each filter lasts for 40 gallons or 4 months
An under-sink filter costs $130 and includes one filter cartridge. Refill filters cost about $60 each. The filter lasts for 500 gallons.
Which option is cheapest over one year (365 days)? Select an answer
Water bottles faucet-mount filter filter pitcher under-sink
filter
The cheapest option saves her $ over a year?
Give your answer to the nearest cent. Pro-rate the costs of
additional filters (so if you only use part of a filter, only count
the corresponding fraction of the filter cost).
