#### Problem 12: Calculating Segment Lengths
**Instructions:**
Use the number line provided to determine the length of each segment as specified in the table.
**Number Line Representation:**
- **Points:**
- A is located at -6
- B is located at -3
- C is located at 0
**Note:** Enter numeric values only in the blanks provided.
**Segments and Their Lengths:**
- **Segment AC:**
- To find the length, determine the distance from A to C.
- A is at -6, C is at 0.
- Length of AC = |0 - (-6)| = 6
- **Segment AB:**
- Already calculated as 3.
- A is at -6, B is at -3.
- Length of AB = |-3 - (-6)| = 3
- **Segment BC:**
- To find the length, calculate the distance from B to C.
- B is at -3, C is at 0.
- Length of BC = |0 - (-3)| = 3
Ensure the blanks for each segment are filled with the calculated lengths.
