This is a very good question to know about. People who make tests really like it.

The way to solve it is to make the slower car stop and use the difference in speed = to the rate. then do it as an ordinary d = r*t problem.

The difference in speeds  is 44 - 36 = 8 miles/ hour.
d = 260 miles
r = 8 mph
t = ???

t = d/r
t = 260/8
t = 32.5 hours.

Thats 32 1/2 hours.

Which best explains if quadrilateral WXYZ can be a parallelogram?
nekit [7.7K]

A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. The correct option is A.

<h3>What is a parallelogram?</h3>

A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. Thus, a parallelogram is always a quadrilateral but a quadrilateral can or cannot be a parallelogram.

For a parallelogram, the pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel. Therefore,

1.)  For the first pair.

(x+8) = 15

x = 7

2.) For the second pair

(x+2)=(2x-5)

x + 2 = 2x - 5

2 + 5 = 2x - x

x = 7

(x+2) = (7+2) = 9

Since the measure of the pair of opposite sides is 15 units, the pair of the other two sides measure 9 units.

Hence, the correct option is A.

The complete question is mentioned in the below image.
