Answer:
y -1 = -1(x -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line through the two points can be found from the slope formula:
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (5 -1)/(-2 -2) = 4/-4 = -1
The point-slope equation for a line through point (h, k) with slope m is ...
y -k = m(x -h)
You have (h, k) = (2, 1) and m = -1. Putting these values into the form gives ...
y -1 = -1(x -2)

<em>Additional comment</em>
Your problem statement already has two of the three values filled in, so you only need to enter the x-coordinate of the first point: 2.

Answer is C because it's less than.
The given point (t, P) is (0, 1000), and the slope is given as ∆P/∆t = 30. Using the point-slope form of the equation for a line, the equation can be written as
... P = 30t + 1000
