Answer

Using speed formula:


\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}

Let y represents the distance in miles and x represents the time in hours.

As per the given statement:

Andrew drove 55 mph on his trip.

Using formula;

we have;


55 = (y)/(x)

Multiply both sides by x we have;


y = 55x

Therefore, the equation best represents the distance he drove is
y = 55x
