y=6003
y equals Start Fraction 600 over 3 End Fraction

600=3x
600 equals 3 x

3=600x
3 equals 600 x

y=600×3

Answer 1

The correct direct variation equation to find the number of miles a jet travels in 3 hours at a rate of 600 mph is:

y = 600 × 3

Thus, the total distance traveled (y) is equal to the rate (600 mph) multiplied by the time (3 hours).
