Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows two parallel slanting lines m and l intersecting a vertical line k. The angles formed at the intersection of lines l and k are 1, 2, 4, and 3. The angles 1 and 4 are opposite to each other while angles 2 and 3 are opposite to each other. The angles formed at the intersection of lines m and k are 5, 6, 8, and 7. The angles 5 and 8 are opposite to each other while angles 6 and 7 are opposite to each other.
If m∠6=140°, what is m∠7?

From the information given, we can see that angles 6 and 7 are opposite to each other at the intersection of lines m and k. Since we know that m∠6=140°, it follows that m∠7 must also be 140°. Therefore, the correct answer is 140°.
