X will be the speed of species b and 4x will be the speed of species a:
x + 4x = 180
5x = 180
x = 180 / 5
x = 36 m/h
If species b has a speed of 36 m/h, the speed of species a is 4 times that:
4 x 36 = 144 m/h.
Answer:

Hope it helped,
Happy homework/ study/ exam!
Okay here:
Let L be the length and W the width of the rectangle.
1. w=2•L
2. 2L+2W=36
Substitute eq. 1 into eq. 2,
2L+2•(2•L)=36
2L+4L=36
6L=36
L=9
Not done yet, then from eq. 1,
W=2•L
W=2•9
W=18 <------- Your answer. :)
Answer:
y=.5x+-2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the linear equation (y=mx+b) m means slope so your slope is .5.
