Answer:

d= 75*t

Explanation:

Given data

We are given that the total distance = 270 miles

And that they have already traveled 42 miles

speed= 75mi/h

The remaining distance of the journey is = 270-42

= 228 miles

We know that

speed= distance/time

distance= speed*time

also

d= 75*t

Hence, we can estimate the distance they have traveled for any number of time t
