To create a linear equation representing the distance Jordan has walked after \( x \) hours at a rate of 2 miles per hour, we can use the formula for distance, which is:
\[
\text{Distance} = \text{Rate} \times \text{Time}
\]
In this case, the rate is 2 miles per hour, and the time is represented by \( x \) hours. Therefore, the equation can be written as:
\[
d = 2x
\]
where:
- \( d \) is the distance Jordan has walked in miles,
- \( x \) is the time in hours.
This is the linear equation representing the distance walked after \( x \) hours.
\[
\text{Distance} = \text{Rate} \times \text{Time}
\]
In this case, the rate is 2 miles per hour, and the time is represented by \( x \) hours. Therefore, the equation can be written as:

where:
- \( d \) is the distance Jordan has walked in miles,
- \( x \) is the time in hours.
This is the linear equation representing the distance walked after \( x \) hours.
