The distance between port M and port N is 162m. A ship left port M with a speed of 45 mph. In 45 minutes another ship left port
2 answers:
Answer:
After 900 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
when we convert the velocities of the ships into miles/ min we get
The equations determining the distances of the ships from the port M (set at x=0) are
(for 45mph ship)
(for 36mph ship)
The solution to these equation lie at t= 900 minutes; therefore the two ships will meet 900 minutes after the departure of the first ship.

The figure of the prism is attached below.
The total surface area of the prism equals the sum of areas of two triangles and the three rectangles.
Surface Area of Prism = Area of 2 Triangles + Area of 3 Rectangles.
Area of a Triangle = 0.5 x Base x Height
Area of a Triangle = 0.5 x 3 x 4 = 6 square units
There are 3 rectangles. From the figure we can see that the bottom most rectangle has the dimensions 4 by 6. The left most rectangle has the dimensions 3 x 6 and the right most rectangle has the dimensions 5 by 6.
So, the Area of 3 rectangles will be = (4 x 6) + (3 x 6) + (5 x 6) = 72 square units
The Surface Area of the prism will be:
Surface Area = 2 (4) + 72 = 84 square units
Thus the correct answer is option A
