A man drove 16 mi directly east from his home, made a left turn at an intersection, and then traveled 2 mi north to his place of work. If a road was made directly from his home to his place of work, what would its distance be to the nearest tenth of a mile?

16. 1 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagorean Theorem,

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Since the road that goes from his home to work directly is c^2...

Plug in the rest of the numbers

16^2 + 2^2 = c^2

256 + 4 = c^2

260 = c^2

The reverse square of 260 is

16. 1 miles

the inequality is:

250c+180g≥950

step-by-step explanation:

let c denotes the number of days in a week   miyoko worked as a cryptographer.

and g denotes the number of days in a week she works as a geologist.

now we are given that she earns $250 for every day she works as a cryptographer,and earns $180 for every day she works as a geologist.

now miyoko's goal is to earn more than $950 this week.

hence, the inequality could be represented as:

250c+180g≥950
