Final answer:
None of the options provided in the student's question correctly answer which city is located near 45 degrees north and 108 degrees west. The correct city near those coordinates is Billings, Montana.
Step-by-step explanation:
The city that is located near 45 degrees north and 108 degrees west is Billings, Montana. None of the options given (a) Denver, (b) Seattle, (c) Chicago, (d) Dallas are correct. The latitude of 45 degrees north is a line that runs horizontally around the Earth, equidistant from the North Pole and the Equator. The longitude of 108 degrees west is a line that runs from the North Pole to the South Pole, passing through the western hemisphere. When these coordinates intersect, they point to a location near Billings, which is the largest city in Montana. It is essential to note that while the coordinates do not exactly pinpoint a city, they give an approximation of the city's location based on the latitude and longitude lines.
