Answer 2

Aria's vertical distance from the top of the valley is less than 3 km when it traveled 3km along the trail

Explanation:

we are given

v(d) models Aria's vertical distance from the top of the valley (in kilometers)

after walking d kilometers along the trail

v(3) means d=3

so, it traveled 3km along the trail

v(d)=3 means Aria's vertical distance from the top of the valley is 3km

so,

`V(3)<3`

It means that

Aria's vertical distance from the top of the valley is less than 3 km when it traveled 3km along the trail
