Tom did not break the 70mph speed limit of M1.
To know if Tom breaks the <em>speed limit </em>of the M1, we must first calculate Tom's speed and compare it to M1's speed limit.
Using the formula below,
- s = d/t............... Equation 1
Where:
- s = Tom's speed
- d = distance from Leicester to London
- t = time taken to travel from Leicester to London
From the question,
Given:
- d = 143 miles
- t = 8:25 to 10:15 = 2 hours 10 munites = (2+10/60) = (2+0.17)
- t = 2.17 hours.
Substitute these values into equation 1
- s = 143/2.17
- s = 65.899 mph.
Hence, Since Tom's speed is less than the M1 speed limit, Tom did not break the 70mph speed limit of M1.

1) 2m - 16 = 2m + 4
2m - 2m = 4 + 16
0 = 20 (no solution)
2) -4(r + 2) = 4(2 - 2r)
-(r + 2) = 2 - 2r
-r - 2 = 2 - 2r
-r + 2r = 2 + 2
r = 4
3) 12(5 + 2y) = 4y - (6 - 9y)
60 + 24y = 4y - 6 + 9y
60 + 24y = 13y - 6
24y - 13y = -6 - 60
11y = -66
y = -6
