Denisa walks home from school several times each week. She walks the 1.6-mils distance at an average rate of 3.8 mph.
Let d(t) represent denisa's distance from home in miles, and let t represent time in hours. Which function represents
Denisa's distance from home in terms of time?

A. d(t)= 3.8-1.6t                

B. d(t)= 3.8(1.6)t

C. d(t)= 1.6(3.8)^t

D. d(t)= 1.6-3.8t              <<<---===  This one.

Because the marked statement, and only it, corresponds to the formulated condition.
