11-47.
Write equations for how long it took for Mimi and Marisol to walk to the shopping mall, where x = the time in hours.
Look back at problem 11-24, which is a similar problem.
Set the equations equal to each other and solve for x.
Substitute the value for x that you found into one of the original equations you wrote to find how far the school is from the mall.
