<p>10 Real Sat, 3rd edition Redbook, Page 349, #10.</p>

<p>Question: In the figure above, points P and T lie on line L. How many different points on line L are twice as far from point T as from point P?</p>

<p>The figure is a line (line L) with points P and T on it. Both points P and T lie on the same line L. </p>

<p>I do not understand what the question wants.</p>

<p>Say P and T are five units apart:</p>

<p>P-----T</p>

<p>X-----P-----T
I think there can only be one, point X.
I hope I understand the question</p>
