At noon, ship A is 10 nautical miles due west of ship B. Ship A
is sailing west at 16 knots and ship B is sailing north at 21
knots. How fast (in knots) is the distance between the ships
changing at 4 PM? (Note: 1 knot is a speed of 1 nautical mile per
hour.)?

Smooth Sailing is a private company that operates one cruise
ship. Smooth Sailing’spurchase of the cruise ship was financed with
nonrecourse debt. (Nonrecourse debt is a loan that is secured by a
pledge of collateral, in this case the cruise ship, but for which
the borrower is not personally liable. If the borrower defaults,
the lender can seize the collateral, but the lender’s recovery is
limited to the collateral.) The cruise ship has its own
identifiable cash flows that are...
