Intel estimates that about 12 quintillion transistors are shipped around the globe each year. If that represents 10,000 times the number of ants on the planet, find the number of ants on Earth. (Show all your workings. Final answer MUST standard notation.)

is it 35

step-by-step explanation:

it would rotate about 180 degrees.

this is a direct variation proportion. y = kx

y is the total amount due, k is the constant of variation, and x is the number of texts sent.

plug in the 3.20 and the 16 to solve for the "k". this is the constant of proportionality. it is the value that will not change.

3.20 = k(16). solving you get $.20 per text.

the equation would then be y = .20x
