Write an algebraic formula that models the given quantity. The distance $d$ in miles that a car travels in $t$ hours at $60 \mathrm{mi} / \mathrm{h}$
Prerequisites
Modeling the Real World with Algebra
An automobile is traveling between points A and B at 60 miles/hour. 2 miles a. Express the distance the car is from the point C in terms of the distance d the car is from point A. b. Express the distance the car is from the point C in terms of the amount of time the car has been traveling. c. Write the distance the car is from point C with respect to the time t as a composition of functions.

When you are 61 miles east of Brimmhaven on a long, straight, deserted road, you set your cruise control to a constant speed of 45 miles per hour as you drive west toward the town. The function D = f(t) gives your distance east of Brimmhaven as a function of t, the number of hours of travel, for values of D between 0 and 61 miles east of the town. (a) Which of the following graphs best fits the model? (b) Write a formula for the function D = f(t). Your formula involves t.
