When you think of the situation as a whole, you may notice that the lines in the problem actually form a triangle. First, the man driving 10 miles east forms a bottom leg of the triangle 10 units long. When he drives the 2 miles north, he adds another leg of 2 units length. When the place of work is connected to the starting position through a line, a third and final line is drawn which creates the triangle.
So, how can we find the direct distance from his place of work to his home? We can use the Pythagorean Theorem (
, where 
and 
are the lengths of the legs of the triangle and 
is the length of the hypotenuse). We know that the lengths of the legs are 10 and 2, which we can use in the formula, as shown below:
Now, we can solve this equation for :
The distance would be √104 miles, or approximately 10.2 miles.
Answer:

Find the diameter
Remember that the diameter is two times the radius
Answer:
idk good luck with that one :)
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to the question is B.
Before we figure out how many customers you will need to talk per day to reach your goal, let's calculate what is 20% of how many customers you normally talk to a day.
current no. = 8
goal = 8 + 20%
20% = 8 x 0.20
(a percent is really just a fraction with the percent number over 100)
20% = 1.60
goal = 8 + 1.60
goal = 9.60
However, there is no such thing as .60 of a person so we will have to round up. You will need to talk to 10 customers per day.
