Directly proportional to x

z=kx

And inversely proportional to y

z=kx/y  we are given the point (x,y,z) of (3, 6, 9.5) so

9.5=3k/6  now multiply both sides by 6

57=3k  divide both sides by 3

19=k so now that we know the constant of proportionality:

z=19x/y,  and we want to solve for z when x=8 and y=12 so:

z=19(8)/12

z=12 2/3  exact

z≈12.667  (rounded to the nearest thousandth)

if the cost price of 10 tables is equal to the selling price of 16 tables , find out the gain or loss percentage​
Dovator [93]

Hi,

To solve this problem, Let us take the LCM of 10 and 16 which will come 80.

Now suppose the cost price of 10 tables =₹n CP of 80 tables will be ₹ 8n

According to the question, CP of 10 tables is equal to the SP of 16 tables, then

the SP of 16 tables will also be ₹ n.

So, SP of 80 tables will be ₹ 5n

So, Loss = CP-SP

→ 8n - 5n = ₹ 3n

Loss%= (3n×100)/8n

Loss%= 37.5%.

Hence the correct answer will be a <u>loss of 37.5%.</u>
