The equation d=3t represents the relationship between the distance (d) in inches that a snail is from a certain rock and the time (t) in minutes. How many minutes does it take the snail to get 9 inches from the rock?
so if d is distance then you plug in 9 for d because it’s the distance the snail will be from the rock and solve for t by dividing 9 by 3 which is 3 minutes.
