Answer:

x = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

When we add up the distance between the apartment and park with the distance between the park and the coffee shop, the total will equal nine miles.

Our equation will look like this:

(5x + 2) + (25x - 8) = 9

Add up the like terms

5x + 2 + 25x - 8 = 9

30x - 6 = 9

Add 6 to both sides

30x - 6 = 9

      + 6  + 6

30x = 15

Divide both sides by the coefficient, 30, to isolate the variable, x

30x/30 = 15/30

x = 15/30

Reduce

x = 1/2
