The slope of the equation is -2

So first we need to find the slope. The equation find slope is:

\frac{ y_{2}  -y_{1} }{ x_{2}-  x_{1} }

Either of the points could be denoted as '1' or '2',

Let's plug in the point (0, 8) as '1' and (-1, 10) as '2':

\frac{10-8}{-1-0} = \frac{2}{-1}=-2

So we know that the slope, m, is equal to -2.

The point-slope equation is:

y- y_{1}=m(x- x_{1})

where m is the slope and x_{1} and y_{1} are the point. So since we have two points here, we can pick one to use for the equation. Let's use (-1, 10):

y-(10)=-2(x-(-1))

**We need to make sure that we have accounted for all of the signs. Remember that two negatives equal a positive:

y-10=-2(x+1)

And there is your point slope form of the line that passes through the two points.

Paula rows 6 miles upstream in 3 hours she returns downstream in 2 hours. Which is the rate Paula rows in still water? What is t
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Upstream - 2 miles per hour

Downstream - 3 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

For the speed upstream, the answer would be 2 miles per hour (mph), because 6÷3=2.

For the speed downstream, the answer would be 3 miles per hour (mph), because 6÷2=3.

Both answers come in similar methods. Hope this helps you!
