Answer:

Liz hiked 0.16 miles by herself.

Step-by-step explanation:

Liz is hiking a trail that is 0.8 miles long. So the total length of her hiking is 0.8 miles.

Liz hiked the first 2 tenths of the distance by herself i.e she hiked [tex]2\times \dfrac{1}{10}=\dfrac{2}{10}[/tex]th of the total distance.

So, the distance that she covered by herself is,

[tex]=\text{Total distance}\times \text{The portion she covered}[/tex]

[tex]=0.8\times \dfrac{2}{10}[/tex]

[tex]=0.16[/tex] miles

Therefore, Liz hiked 0.16 miles by herself.
