Scientist estimate the rate of a wildebeest running at full speed to be 66 feet per second. Write a function rule to describe the relationship between the time, t, and the distance, d, a wildebeest travel's when running at full speed.

A. t=66d
B. 66=d•t
C. d=66/t
D. d= 66t****
I need help understanding and am I right?

the 66 ft/s is the speed, or the velocity.

since distance = time x velocity , or distance = time x rate
d = 66t

which you picked correctly

66 feet per second times the time in seconds would equal the distance traveled.

Thanks!!!

That was so not helpful at all anyone have the real answers?

To determine the correct function rule that describes the relationship between time (t) and distance (d), we can start by analyzing the given information. The scientists estimate that the rate of a wildebeest running at full speed is 66 feet per second.

The formula to calculate distance is:

distance = rate × time

Here, the rate of the wildebeest running is 66 feet per second, and the time is represented by t.

So, the correct function rule is:

d = 66t

Therefore, option D, "d = 66t", is the correct choice. You are right!
