exercise 36 to find the maximum speed of a lion. 38. A sparrow can fly \( { }_{12}^{7} \) the speed of a duck, and a crow can fly \( { }_{3}^{2} \) the speed of a duck. The speeds of the sparrow and crow combined would be 15 mi ./hr. faster than the duck. What are the flying speeds of the three birds? 39. A pigeon flies twice as fast as a starling, and a starling flies 2.25 times as fast as a blue jay. A pigeon flies how many times as fast as a blue jay? 40. A jackrabbit can run 42 mi . hr. for 5 min ., and then it must slow to \( 20 \mathrm{mi} . / \mathrm{hr} \). for the next 30 min . After 35 min . it must stop to rest. A coyote can run 36 mi . hr , for up to 20 min . How long will it take the coyote to overtake the rabbit? Assume they run the same path. (Hint: First find the distance the rabbit is ahead after 5 min .) CUMULATIVE REVIEW Estimate the sum or difference by rounding each fraction to the nearest whole number. [2.7] 41. \( 3 \frac{5}{6}+4 \frac{3}{8} \) 42. \( 8 \frac{15}{22}+6 \frac{5}{11} \) \( 43.7 \frac{2}{5}+11 \frac{3}{8} \) 44. \( 6 \frac{2}{3}-8 \frac{1}{5} \) 45. \( 12 \frac{8}{15}-4 \frac{3}{5} \)

Did you know that lions, often referred to as the "king of the jungle," can reach remarkable speeds? They can sprint up to 50 miles per hour for short distances, making them some of the fastest big cats. However, they rely more on stealth and strategy than speed to catch their prey, which is why they often lay in wait before making a quick dash! Birds have fascinating dynamics when it comes to speed! For instance, while a sparrow may fly at approximately 12.7 times the speed of a duck and a crow at about 3.2 times, it's intriguing to see how these species’ speeds add up. If combined, the sparrow and crow would indeed exceed the duck's speed by 15 mph! It just goes to show that in nature, teamwork can yield some surprising results!
