In the 1988 Winter Olympics, Bonnie Blair set a world record for womens speed skating by skating approximately 12.79 meters per second in the 500-meter race. Suppose she could maintain that speed. Write an equation that represents how far she could travel in t seconds.
distance in t seconds = 12.79t
d(t)= 12.79t
