Answer:
1249. 5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Pole length , Pl = 2 fts
Pole shadow, Ps = 20 in = (0.0833 * 20) = 1.666 ft
Tower length, Tl = 125 ft
Tower shadow, Ts = x
Pl / Ps = Tl/ Ts
2/ 1.666 = 125 / x
Cross multiply
2x = 125 * 1.666
2x = 208.25
x = 104.125 ft
x = 104.125 * 12 = 1249. 5 inches
Answer:
511 employees
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
P=690
rate= 2%
time = 13 years
let us apply the simple interest formula
A=P(1-rt)
Note the negative sign (since we are dealing with decrease)
A= 690(1-0.02*13)
A=690(1-0.26)
A=690*0.74
A=510.6
A= 511 approx
Hence the population will reduce to 511 employees
