Answer:

8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

time = distance/speed

A decrease of 15 mph from 45 mph means the speed on the second segment is 30 mph. Filling in the given values in the above equation, we have ...

... time = (4 mi)/(30 mi/h) = 4/30 h = 8/60 h × (60 min/h) = 8 min

Please help. there is a picture below
OleMash [197]
Two triangles are similar if and only if all corresponding angles are equal (congruence), even if the corresponding sides are equal or not, therefore the answer is true because ΔJKL and ΔRST are similar and the statement above demands that "it must be", namely, this is a sufficient condition.
