Answer:
Selena lives \(x=\frac{1}{3}\) mile far from school.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the distance Selena walk from home to school be x mile. then the distance she walk back to home will be x mile also . as distance between home to school is same as distance between school to home.
Total distance Selena walk each day = x + x = 2x
also, given distance traveled by Selena each day = \(\frac{2}{3}\)
Thus,
\(2x=\frac{2}{3}\)
Solve for x, we get,
\(\Rightarrow x=\frac{2}{3 \times 2}\)
\(\Rightarrow x=\frac{1}{3}\)
Thus, Selena lives \(x=\frac{1}{3}\) mile far from school.
