Answer: Sally will catch up with Jane after 50 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Speed of Jane of biking = 12 mph

After 10 minutes,

Speed of Sally of biking = 15 mph

Let the distance be 'x'.

According to question, our required equation becomes,

\dfrac{x}{12}-\dfrac{x}{15}=\dfrac{10}{60}\\\\\dfrac{5x-4x}{60}=\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\\dfrac{1x}{60}=\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\x=10\ miles

Thus, total distance would be 10 miles.

So, the time taken by Sally to catch up with Jane is given by

\dfrac{10}{12}=\dfrac{5}{6}\times 60=50\ minutes

Hence, Sally will catch up with Jane after 50 minutes.

Answer:

10/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

12x=15x-10

12x-15x=15x-10-15x

-3x=-10

-3x/-3=-10/-3

x=10/3

  • Complementary Angles - Angles that add up to 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Set Up Equation</u>

<em>The 2 angles must add up to 90°.</em>

(8m + 4)° + 38° = 90°

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>m</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                    8m + 42 = 90
  2. Isolate <em>m</em> term:                             8m = 48
  3. Isolate <em>m</em>:                                      m = 6
