two pirate ships leave the same port at the same time. The first ship travels due North at a constant speed while the second ship travels due East at a constant speed. After one hour, the ships are 25 miles apart. The ship traveling North is 5 mph faster than the ship traveling East. Find the speed of each ship in miles per hour.​

Step-by-step explanation:

the speed of the first ship is 20 mph

and the second ship is 15 mph

2 over 5

step-by-step explanation:

the 2: 3 ratio is the length of the ac segment to the cb segment total length. this implies that the ratio between segment ac length and segment ab length is 2: 5. point c is 2/5 from a to b, so the required fraction is 2/5.
