Answer:

  12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in distance started out being 1 mile. The difference in speeds is 5 mph, so that 1 mile will be covered in ...

  time = distance/speed = 1 mi/(5 mi/h) = (1/5) h

The police will catch up in 1/5 hour, or 12 minutes.

Angle 5= 46
Angle 7= 46  They are opposite, therefore, they measure the same.
 
If angle 2 is 134 degrees, so is angle 4.
They are parallel to each other, so angle 2 equals to angle 6, angle 4 equals to angle 8.
The sum of the four angles (5, 6, 7, & 8) is 360. The sum of the angle 2 (6) and angle 4 (8) is 268 (134x2).
360-268=92
92/2=46    Angles 5 and 7 are equal to each other, and their sum is 92, then you                    just need to divide 92 by two
                
               I do not know about the signs next to 5 and 7, though. I hope this helped                  you

Solve for m. <br> -6(1+8m)=-342
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

<u>m</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>7</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

{ \sf{ - 6(1 + 8m) =  - 342}}

divide all sides by (-6) :

{ \sf{ \frac{ - 6(1 + 8m)}{ - 6}  =  \frac{ - 342}{ - 6} }} \\  \\ { \sf{1 + 8m = 57}}

make m the subject:

{ \sf{8m = 56}} \\ { \sf{m = 7}}
