If you increase the number of police officers from 648,000 to 719,000...you have increased the total employment by 719,000 minus 648,000 
= 71,000

You want to see how much the percentage increase was from 2006 to 2016, so you use your 2006 value of police officers to find the percentage increase.

So you divide 71,000 by 648,000 and multiply by 100 
=10.957%

Rounded off to 10.96% which is your final answer

The shadows of two vertical poles were measured at the same time to be 6m and 15m long. If the first pole is 8cm long, find the
son4ous [18]

Answer:

20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Shadow of vertical poles : 6m ; 15m

Length of poles : 8cm ; h

8cm long pole = shadow length, 6m

h cm long pole = shadow length, 15 m

Using cross multiplication :

8cm * 15 m = h cm * 6m

120 = 6h

h = 120 / 6

h = 20 cm

Height of second pole = 20cm
