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: D) 3/150</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
With the use of a calculator, we see that,
- 11/19 = 0.57894736842106...., the decimals eventually repeat; but unfortunately my calculator ran out of room to show the repeating portion
- 4/7 = 0.5714285714285714..., the block "571428" repeats forever
- 1/3 = 0.333333.... the 3s go on forever
- 3/150 = 0.02
So 3/150 converts to the terminating decimal 0.02
The word "terminate" means "stop". In the other decimal values, the decimal digits go on forever repeating the patterns mentioned.
----------------------
A non-calculator approach will have us simplify 3/150 into 1/50 after dividing both parts by the GCF 3. Then notice how 50 has the prime factorization of 2*5*5. The fact that the denominator 50 can be factored in terms of only 2's and 5's is enough evidence to conclude that the fraction converts to a terminating decimal.
If the denominator factors into some other primes, other than 2s and 5s, then we don't have a terminating decimal. So that's why 11/19, 4/7 and 1/3 convert to non-terminating decimals.
Answer:
.07 * 15.25 = 1.0675
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a) there is s such that <u>r>s</u> and s is <u>positive</u>
b) For any <u>r>0</u> , <u>there exists s>0</u> such that s<r
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We are given a positive real number r. We need to wite that there is a positive real number that is smaller. Call that number s. Then r>s (this is equivalent to s<r, s is smaller than r) and s is positive (or s>0 if you prefer). We fill in the blanks using the bold words.
b) The last part claims that s<r, that is, s is smaller than r. We know that this must happen for all posirive real numbers r, that is, for any r>0, there is some positive s such that s<r. In other words, there exists s>0 such that s<r.
