After she worked out the problem, she had a discrepancy (disagreement) of
about 45% between her estimate and the quotient.
That's a lot ! There's almost definitely a major mistake somewhere, and
there really isn't any way to tell whether the mistake is in the estimate or
in the quotient.
My answer to the question is that Lilly has to go all the way back to the
beginning, and do the whole thing again. Only this time, she has a harder
job to do: She not only has to make another estimate and work out the
division problem again. This time, she also has to find the mistake that
she made the first time ... and there may be more than one of them.
If you call
the mass of the ant and
the load, we have the equation

In fact, the mass of the ant is one tenth of the load, which is exactly what this equation states.
Since we are given the load, we simply need to plug its value in the equation to deduce the mass of the ant:

Answer:
b. No x-intercept y-intercept is (0, -8)
Answer:
The graph of f has an inflection point at x = 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
An inflection point occurs when the second derivative changes signs. Since f"(x) is decreasing and has an x-intercept at 0, it changes signs from + to -, so there is an inflection point at x = 0.
Answer:
55%
Step-by-step explanation:
11/20 = 0.55
0.55 = 55%
