Satellites

The radius of a satellite's orbit is inversely proportional to its velocity. If a satellite is slowed by drag and its velocity not corrected by thrusters, why does its orbital radius not increase?

Is 1.5 Rational?

I don't think 1.5 represents a rational number. It stands for any real number between 1.45 and 1.549999999 expressed to 2 significant figures. It does not have the same meaning as 3/2.
