Respuesta :

Answer:

Sonji is 0.5 miles far from the finish line

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Distance between the Sonji and the finish line = 0.4 miles

Distance run by Sonji back = one tenth of a mile

i.e = [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] miles = 0.1 miles

Hence,

The total distance of Sonji from the finish line will be

= Distance between the Sonji and the finish line + Distance run by Sonji back

= 0.4 miles + 0.1 miles

= 0.5 miles

Hence,

Sonji is 0.5 miles far from the finish line
