The correct direct variation equation to find the number of miles a jet travels in 3 hours if it is flying at a rate of 600mph is:

y = kx

where y represents the number of miles traveled and x represents the number of hours. In this case, we are given that the jet is traveling at a rate of 600 mph, so we can substitute that value for the rate:

y = 600x

To find the distance traveled in 3 hours, we substitute 3 for x:

y = 600(3)
y = 1800

So, the correct equation is:

d. y = 1800
