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 loss of 37.5%.

The equation for the circle below is x^2+y^2=64 what is the length of the circle’s radius

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an equation of a circle:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

(h, k) - center

r - radius

We have the equation:

$x^2+y^2=64\\\\(x-0)^2+(y-0)^2=8^2$

Therefore the center is (0, 0) and the radius r = 8
