$\dfrac{2m}{5}+3=7(4m-3)\ \ \ \ |use\ distributive\ property:a(b-c)=ab-ac\\\\\dfrac{2m}{5}+3=28m-21\ \ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\\\2m+15=140m-105\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 140m\ from\ both\ sides\\\\-138m+15=-105\ \ \ \ |subtract\ 15\ from\ both\ sides\\\\-138m=-120\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ (-138)\\\\m=\dfrac{120:6}{138:6}\\\\\boxed{m=\frac{20}{23}}$

Using the rules of cosines, the <span>measure of the turn between the second and third legs of the race</span> is given by

$\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{180^2+160^2-140^2}{2\times180\times160} \right)=\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{32,400+26,600-19,600}{57,600} \right) \\ \\ =\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{39,400}{57,600} \right)=\cos^{-1}(0.6840)\approx47^o$
