Answer 12

Do you agree thats the final answer?

Answer 13

the drawing of x was kinda incorrect because the question asked for the distance between the man and the tree

Answer 14

what we found was x so we need to minus 8 from x

Answer 15

x is correct, you just have to do x - 8 for your final answer.
