Answer:
Ship is 34° west
Explanation:
given data
mean time is 14:16 hours
local time = noon
solution
as we know that when each degree of shift in the longitude then there will be a time difference of 4 minute
so 1° = 4 minutes
and
given time change in hour
change in hours = 14:16-12:00 = 2 hrs 16 minutes
so time zone at the ship location = 9 hours 20 minutes behind GMT
and
2 hrs 16 minutes = 136 minutes
now we convert to degree so divide by 4
change in degree = [tex]\frac{136}{4}[/tex]
change in degree = 34°
so, ship is 34° west
