According to the distance formula:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d=rt+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "We can assume from the problem that
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d+=+3+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "So, we plug in the distance and time into the formula to find the rate first.
\n" ); document.write( "\"+3+=+r%284%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+3%2F4+=+r+\" Division Property of Equality\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So if r = 3/4, then we can also plug in the time of 7 minutes into the equation to find the distance traveled in 7 minutes.
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d+=+%283%2F4%29%287%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d+=+21%2F4+\" Simplify
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
