infinite
How about the number line
Yes. On any straight line you can find an infinite set of 4 points which are collinear.
Infinite! When you speak of a "point" on a line segment, you're referring to infinitely small locations, not physical dots that you might draw on the segment. If you think of a "point" as being located at a certain distance from one of the end points of a 3 inch segment, such as 2.31 inches from the left side, you could always add more and more decimal places to the distance, such as 2.3173... to identify an infinite number of "points" or locations on the segment. A segment has 2 points one at the end and one at the beginning.**The answer as to how many points are on a line segment is "infinite". A given line segment is determined by it's two "end points", but has an infinite set of points between and including these two end points that make up the segment itself.
To clarify, since you you couldn't put in symbols: Which group of points are all on the line y=-2x+1? If we are graphing over the real numbers, then there are an infinite number of points: all the points on the line. We can say this mathematically as: "The set of all points (x,y) for which y=-2x+1"
a line is a set of infinite points. a stretched string is finite.
An infinite set of points can be a microscopically small line segment. An infinite number of points does not mean an infinitely long line.
A finite set has a finite number of elements, an infinite set has infinitely many.
A set which containing $and pi are the end blocks are the finite and without these are infinite
Let's think of a line segment as a finite set of points. Along those lines, (pun intended) think of a ray and a line as infinite sets of points. Then we think of longer in terms of the size of the set. So for example, a 2 inch line segment would be longer than a 1 inch line segment because we can have more points in the set which is made of the two inch segment. The ray and the line are the same size since they both can be viewed as sets containing an infinite number of points. The line segment being a finite set is smaller than the other two.
The way I understand it, a finite set can not be an infinite set, because if it were an infinite set, then it would not be a finite set, and the original premise would be violated.

finite
The set of integers is an infinite set as there are an infinite number of integers.
An empty set (null set) is considered finite.
all finite set is countable.but,countable can be finite or infinite
It is called in infinite set.
