1.
The Hanjin Amsterdam, a cargo ship, has just finished unloading and loading cargo at the Port of Shanghai (point S). It is setting sail for the Port of Long Beach, represented by point L. Using the data on the figure, calculate the distance the Hanjin Amsterdam must sail to reach the Port of Long Beach.
How much would it cost the ship to travel this far if fuel costs $80.00 per mile?
2.
The OOCL Los Angeles, a cargo ship, is sailing from Zhanjiang to Honolulu and then on to Long Beach. Using the information on the following graph, calculate the distance the ship will traverse.
If fuel costs $87.50 per mile, how much will it cost to travel this distance?
3.
In 2006 fuel costs rose to approximately $171.86 per mile. Calculate the total distance the OOCL Los Angeles will travel if it departs out of Shanton, docks in Long Beach and then returns to Shanton. Calculate the approximate fuel cost of the roundtrip voyage.
