d = rt + 1/2 at^2 = distance traveled in time t, starting with velocity r, and accelerating at a.

If you are not accelerating (a = 0), the the above equation becomes d = rt, which is what you wrote. So you are correct, but only if you are not accelerating.

The distance you travel is " Your rate" * " how long you maintained this rate" So yes, D= rt, as in :
50 mph = 50 mles(1 hour)
50 mph= (25 miles(2 hours))

follow the units:
rate is in distance per time, ie ft/sec.
time is in seconds
so [distance/time]*time = distance
