The cost price of the table is $40.

<h3>What is Gain ?</h3>

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.

Which algebraic expression is a polynomial? 3m2n-2m/n+1/n
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

d) 7mn+\frac{3m}{2}+\frac{5n}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Which algebraic expression is a polynomial?

a)3m^2n-\frac{2m}{n}+\frac{1}{n}  \\b)\frac{2mn}{5}-\frac{\sqrt{m} }{4} +4m^5\\c)\frac{4m^3}{n^2}-3mn^5+\sqrt{8}\\d)7mn+\frac{3m}{2}+\frac{5n}{4}

Answer: A polynomial is an expression with variables and coefficients separated by addition and subtraction. The following are used when determining if an expression is a polynomial:

i) Variables of a polynomial must not have negative exponent.

ii) Variables of a polynomial must not have fractional exponent.

iii) Dividing by an exponent is not allowed

iv) Exponent radicals are not allowed.

a) 3m^2n-\frac{2m}{n}+\frac{1}{n} is not a polynomial because dividing by an exponent is not allowed.

b) \frac{2mn}{5}-\frac{\sqrt{m} }{4} +4m^5, is not a polynomial because exponent radicals are not allowed (√m)

c) \frac{4m^3}{n^2}-3mn^5+\sqrt{8} is not a polynomial because dividing by an exponent is not allowed.

d) 7mn+\frac{3m}{2}+\frac{5n}{4} is a polynomial

DE is tangent to Circle C at point D. <br><br> What is the measure of Enter your answer in the box.
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

39°

Step-by-step explanation:

A radius of a circle (segment CD) drawn to the point of tangency (D) intersects the tangent (line DE) at a 90-deg angle.

That makes m<D = 90.

m<D + m<C + m<E = 180

90 + 51 + m<E = 180

m<E = 39
