Let y be the number of miles the jet travels in 3 hours.
Since the jet is flying at a rate of 600 mph, the distance it travels in one hour can be given as 600 miles.
Since distance traveled is directly proportional to time,
we can write the direct variation equation as:
y = 600 * 3
Write a direct variation equation to find the number of miles a jet travels in 3 hours if it is flying at a rate of 600 mph.
