Given that the ship was traveling for 4 mph faster heading west than south then let the speed of the ship heading south be x mph, the speed of the ship heading west will be (x+4) mph
the distance is given by:
distance=speed*time
distance heading south was:
x*4=4x miles
distance heading west was:
5(x+4)=5x+20
thus the total distance will be given by:
4x+(5x+20)=191
9x+20=191
9x=191-20
9x=171
x=171/9
x=19 mph
the speed the ship used to travel west was:
x+4
=19+4
=21 mph

A right rectangular pyramid is sliced vertically (down) at the red line by a plane not passing through the vertex of the pyramid

crimeas [40]

The cross-section of a right rectangular pyramid will be shaped similar to the base, that is, a rectangle. Hence, 4th option is the right choice.

If the peak of the rectangular pyramid is directly above the center of the base, it creates a perpendicular to the base, indicating the height of the pyramid. This type of rectangular pyramid is known as the right rectangular pyramid.

A rectangle is a quadrilateral, that is a closed figure with 4 line segments, with all four interior angles at 90°.

When we slice a right rectangular pyramid vertically down at the red line by a plane, not passing through the vertex, of the pyramid will be a dilated image of its base.

A dilated image is an enlarged or diminished image of the preimage, similar with all angles.

Thus, the cross-section of a right rectangular pyramid will be shaped similar to the base, that is, a rectangle. Hence, 4th option is the right choice.
