To express the relationship between the number of round trips Scott makes (x) and the total distance he walks (y), we can use the following equation:
\[ y = 3x \]
In this equation, \( y \) represents the total kilometers Scott has walked, and \( x \) represents the number of round trips he makes. Since each round trip is 3 kilometers long, the total distance is the product of the number of round trips and the distance of each round trip.
\[ y = 3x \]
