Solution:
1. Given:
- The hiker's speed is such that each mile takes 15 minutes.

2. Define the function:
- Let

f(m)

represent the time in minutes it takes to walk

m

miles.
- Since each mile takes 15 minutes, we have:

f(m) = 15m

3. The function

f(m)

gives the total time taken in minutes based on the number of miles

m

walked.
