Answer:

(1,6), (2,6), (3,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you  travel 6 miles per hour when paddling and 2 miles per hour when drifting, and the total distance covered is 24 miles, we find the times t and t' of paddling and drifting respectively in which the product 6t + 2t' = 24.

So, for the first values of t and t' , we have t = 1 and t' = 9

So, 6t + 2t' = 6 × 1 + 2 × 9 = 6 + 18 = 24

As an ordered pair (1, 9)

For the second set of values of t and t' , we have t = 2 and t' = 6

So, 6t + 2t' = 6 × 2 + 2 × 6 = 12 + 12 = 24

As an ordered pair (2, 6)

For the third set of values of t and t' , we have t = 3 and t' = 3

So, 6t + 2t' = 6 × 3 + 2 × 3 = 18 + 6 = 24

As an ordered pair (3, 3)

So, the three different combinations of paddling and drifting times are (1,6), (2,6), and (3,3)

The equation of the line in this graph is<br>y= ____ x+____ .<br>​
Alexxx [7]
The equation of the line in this graph is y = 3/2x + 3.

Explanation:

In slope intercept form equations, the initial value is where everything begins. In this equation, that would be at the point (0,3). From there, because it is going up toward the right side, there is a positive slope. The formula for slope is rise over run, so to get our slope, we have to go up 3 units and over 2 units.
