Lola drives her car at 35 miles per hour. Write an equation using two variables to show the relationship between the number of hours she drives, t

, and the total distance, d
, she drives, after 6 hours.(1 point)
Responses

d=35t
; 210 miles
d equals 35 t ; 210 miles

d=35t
; 180 miles
d equals 35 t ; 180 miles

t=35d
; 210 miles
t equals 35 d ; 210 miles

t=35+d

To write an equation that shows the relationship between the number of hours Lola drives, \( t \), and the total distance \( d \) she drives, we can use the formula for distance:

\[ d = rt \]

where \( r \) is the rate (or speed). In this case, Lola drives at a speed of 35 miles per hour. Therefore, the equation becomes:

\[ d = 35t \]

To find the total distance after 6 hours, we can substitute \( t = 6 \) into the equation:

\[ d = 35 \times 6 = 210 \text{ miles} \]

So, the correct response would be:

d = 35t; 210 miles
