Two ships leave a port at 9 a.m. One travels at a bearing of N 53° W at 12 miles per hour, and the other travels at a bearing of S 67° W at s miles per hour. (a) Use the Law of Cosines to write an equation that relates s and the distance d between the two ships at noon. (b) Find the speed s that the second ship must travel so that the ships are 41 miles apart at noon. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) mi/h Need Help? Read It Watch It
