We can find the bat's wholesale cost by working backwards -

Do $41 - 9 to get $32, then we can divide the 32 by the 4 to get $8.

Therefore, the wholesale cost of the bat is $8.

Happy to help!

Answer:

The bat's wholesale cost is $8

Step-by-step explanation:

You first have to subtract 9 from 41 as that will be 4 times the wholesale cost, which is $32. Then you have to divide 32 by 4, as we want to get the wholesale cost, not 4 times of the wholesale cost, and this would give us the wholesale cost, which is $8.

By selling a table for sh.56, gain is as much as percent as its cost in dollars. What is the cost price? By selling a table for

sergij07 [2.7K]

The cost price of the table is $40.

Gain is the amount gain by selling the product at a higher price than its cost.

Let the cost of the table is $ x

The percentage gain is x% (as given in the question)

Cost price = ?

It is known that

Step 1 : Gain = ( selling Price - Cost Price) * 100 / Cost Price

Selling price = 56

Cost Price = $ x

Therefore substituting the value

x = (56 - x) * 100 / x

x² = 5600 - 100x

x² +100x -5600 = 0

Step 2 : Factorizing

x² + 140x - 40 x -5600 = 0

x( x+14 ) -40( x +14) = 0

( x - 40)(x +14) = 0

x = $40

Therefore the cost price of the table is $40.
