Answer:

Scully will catch up with Mulder by 7:30 PM.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Mulder leaves the office at 9​:30a.m. averaging 57mph.

Scully leaves at 10​:00​a.m., following the same path and averaging 60 mph.

Distance covered by Mulder between 9:30 AM and 10:00 AM:

\frac{57}{2}= 28.5 miles

Let t is the time taken by Scully to catch up with​ Mulder.

After leaving office Scully needs to cover extra distance of 28.5 miles because Mulder leaves the office earlier.

Therefore total distance cover by them is:

28.5+57t=60t

28.5=60t-57t

28.5=3t\\t=9.5

Hence, it would take 9 hours 30 minutes to catch up Mulder.

10 am + 9 hours 30 minutes = 7:30 pm

Therefore, Scully will catch up with Mulder by 7:30 PM.
