Answer:  10.96%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent increase is given by :-

\dfrac{\text{Increase in amount}}{\text{Previous amount}}\times 100

Given : The total employment for police officers in 2006 was 648,000.

If there are 719,000 police officers in 2016, then increases in police officers = 719000-648000=71000

The percent increase will be :_

\dfrac{71000}{648000}\times 100=10.9567901235\approx10.96\%

Hence, the percent increase = 10.96%.

\frac{719000 - 648000}{648000} \times 100\% \\  = 11.0\%(corr \: to \: 3 \: sig. \: fig.)
The percentage increase is 11%

Timothy put $300 in a bank that pays 7% interest rate, if he leaves his interest from the first year in the bank, how much money
andriy [413]

Answer: he would have $343.47 after 2 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

if he leaves his interest from the first year in the bank, we would assume that his interest was compounded. We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = $300

r = 7% = 7/100 = 0.07

n = 1 because it was compounded once in a year.

t = 2 years

Therefore,.

A = 300(1 + 0.07/1)^1 × 2

A = 300(1.07)^2

A = $343.47

Daniella collected 4242 bushels of peas from her garden today. Tomorrow she will send \frac{3}{7} 7 3 ​ of the peas to market. H
Vaselesa [24]

Answer: 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of bushels of peas collected = 42

Fraction that'll be sent to market = 3/7

Fraction that'll be kept = 1 - 3/7 = 7/7 - 3/7 = 4/7

The number of bushels that'll be kept will be:

= Fraction that'll be kept × Total number of bushels collected

= 4/7 × 42

= 24

There are two cones, the area of a cone is base x height divided by 3. in order to find the base, you would need the area of the circle which is π r^2. once you have that, multiple it by the height and divide by three. you will need to find both of the cone’s volumes so you would need to add the two volumes together to find the volume of the entire shape
