<h3>What is percentage?</h3>

The term "percentage" comes from the Latin phrase "per centum," meaning means "by the hundred." Percentages is fractions with a denominator of 100.

In other terms, it is the relationship between portion and whole in which the value of the whole is always assumed to be 100.

Calculating a percentage implies determining a portion of a whole in term of 100. A percentage can be calculated in two ways:

The unitary technique is used.
By adjusting the fraction's denominator to 100.
It must be noted that second method of percentage calculation is not employed when the denominator isn't a factor of 100. In such circumstances, we employ the unitary technique.

Now, according to the question;

Given that prices fall about 20% every decade;

Thus, 100% - 20% = 80%

He paid $250 million for a batmobile twenty years ago.

Let Bruce to receive x millions of dollars for the batmobile.

⇒ 80% of x = 80/100 × x = 4/5 x

⇒ x = 250(4/5)(4/5)

⇒ x = 250(16/25)

⇒ x = 160

As a result, Bruce will receive 160 millions of dollars for such batmobile.

there are 12 students who play the clarinet and 16 students who play the viola. what does the ratio 16:12 describe?

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: The ratio 16:12 describes the ratio of the number of students who play the viola to the students who play the clarinet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Number of students who play the clarinet= 12

Number of students who play the viola=16

We know that ratio of A to B is represented by A:B.

Since, the number '12' is representing " students who play the clarinet" and number '16' is representing " students who play the viola"

So , the ratio 16:12 describes the ratio of the number of students who play the viola to the students who play the clarinet.

If f(x) = 6x-11, what is f(-6)?

In-s [12.5K]

If f(x) = (6x-11), then f(-6) = -47.

We are provided in the question statement with a function "f(x)" whose output is a polynomial of 1 variable and degree 1.

To obtain the value of f(-6) from the output polynomial of the function f(x), we will simply need to substitute (-6) as the value of x in the polynomial and calculate the final value.

So,

$f(-6)=[(6*(-6))-11]\\or, f(-6)=(-36-11)\\or, f(-6)=-(36+11)\\or, f(-6) =-47$

Hence, f(-6) = -47.

Polynomial: In mathematics, an expression of more than two algebraic terms, especially the sum of several terms that contain the same variable(s) of different powers and individual, distinct co-efficients.
Function: In Mathematics, a function is an operator which on taking input, provides a certain output.
