To find the number of miles a jet travels in 3 hours at a rate of 600 mph, we can use the direct variation equation:

\[ y = kx \]

where \( y \) is the distance traveled, \( k \) is the rate (600 mph), and \( x \) is the time in hours.

In this case:

\[ y = 600 \times 3 \]

So the correct equation is:

**y = 600 × 3**
