Answer:

Number on ants on Earth = 1.2 × 10¹⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

1 quintillion = 10¹⁸ or (1000000000000000000)

∴ 12 quintillion = 12 × 10¹⁸

12 quintillion = 10,000 × Number of ants on Earth

Let the number of ants on Earth = n

12 quintillion = 10,000 × n

dividing both sides by 10,000

12 quintillion ÷ 10,000 = n

$n = \frac{12\ \times\ 10^{18} }{10,000} \\n = \frac{12\ \times\ 10^{18} }{10^{4}}\\n = 12\ \times\ \frac{10^{18}}{10^{4}} \\applying\ the\ second\ law\ of\ indices\ (\frac{x^m}{x^n} = x ^{m-n})\\ n = 12\ \times\ 10^{(18 - 4)\\n = 12\ \times 10^{14}\\in\ standard\ form\\n = 1.2\ \times 10\ \times\ 10^{14}\\\therefore n = 1.2\ \times\ 10^{15}$

Number on ants on Earth = 1.2 × 10¹⁵

What is the minimum value of the graph of y=sin x assumes

Alex

Short answer: - 1
The first thing you should do is draw this or get a program to do it. I use desmos. It is included. The graph shows one complete cycle every 2*pi intervals (or 360 degrees.)

You will find no lower value that y = - 1 (nor any value greater than y = 1)
