A kayaker can paddle 3 miles upstream and 3 miles downstream in the same amount of time he can paddle 8 miles in Stillwater. If the rate of the current is 2 mph, which of the following equations could be used to calculate the kayakers speed in Stillwater, s,in miles per hour?

you just switch the numbers basically so it would be 3/17

3xy cannot be combined with the others

2x, -5x and x are like terms

b: y = 2x + 2

step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 1

we want a line that is parallel, so it will have the same slope

the line is in the form y= mx+b, so the slope is 2

we have a slope and the y intercept (0,2)

since x is 0 we know the y point which is the y intercept

we can use y= mx+b to write the equation of the line

m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 2x +2
