Default Rip saw, how many teeth

I need to replace the blade in my bench saw, it will only have very

10" blade?

If ripping is not the main task, then go for the combination blade
(~40T) - it will still rip, just not as fast, and everything else it
will make a nicer job of.

I just ordered a couple of new blades:

Very nice blades with plenty of carbide on each tooth, very pleased with
them.
