Respuesta :

It is the time it takes Amy to hike to the waterfall.

The term [tex]\frac{6}{x}[/tex]  describes the time it takes Amy to hike to the waterfall.

The correct answer is an option (C)

What is speed?

"It is defined as the distance traveled per unit times."

What is relation?

"It defines a relation between input values and output values."

For given example,

Amy hikes 6 miles from a ranger station to a waterfall and back again. She hikes 1 mile/hour faster on the way back.

we have been given a function [tex]T(x)=\frac{6}{x}+\frac{6}{x+1}[/tex]

This function represents Amy's total time spent hiking,

and x represents Amy's hiking speed in miles/hour.

Let 't' be the time required to reach Amy from ranger hills to a waterfall.

As 'x' represents Amy's hiking speed in miles/hour and Amy hikes 6 miles from a ranger station to a waterfall.

Using the formula of speed,

⇒ x = 6/t

t = 6/x

Therefore, the term [tex]\frac{6}{x}[/tex]  describes the time it takes Amy to hike to the waterfall.

The correct answer is an option (C)
