Answer 1

Answer: 0.3929

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are going to assume that the apartment, park and shop lies on a straight line.

We've been told that Mr. Ledic's apartment to the park is (5x + 6) miles and the trip from the park to the coffee shop is (23x - 8) miles while the coffee shop is nine miles from her apartment. This vsn be written as:

(5x+6)+(23x-8) = 9

28x+6-8=9

28x-2=9

28x=9+2

28x=11

x=11/28

x = 0.3929

Therefore, the value of x is 0.3929
