Answer:

£135 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C be the cost of table.

And let R be the radius of table.

Cost of table is directly proportional to square of radius.

As per question statement:

C\propto R^{2} or

C=a\times R^2  ....... (1)

where a is the constant to remove the \propto sign.

It is given that

C_1 = £60 and R_1 = 50\ cm

C_2 = ? when R_2= 75\ cm

Putting the values of C_1 and R_1 in equation (1):

60=a \times 50^2  ....... (2)

Putting the values of C_2 and R_2 in equation (1):

C_2=a \times 75^2  ....... (3)

Dividing equation (2) by (3):

\dfrac{60}{C_2}= \dfrac{a \times 50^2}{a \times 75^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{60}{C_2}= \dfrac{50^2}{75^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{60}{C_2}= \dfrac{2^2}{3^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{60}{C_2}= \dfrac{4}{9}\\\Rightarrow C_2 = 15 \times 9 \\\Rightarrow C_2 = 135

So, <em>£135 is the correct answer</em>.
