A worker in a factory earns $10 an hour. The worker works 10 hours a day for 10 days straight before a vacation. How much money did the worker earn before going on vacation?

3^10
10^1
10^3
10^2

To calculate the total earnings, we need to multiply the worker's hourly rate by the number of hours worked per day for the number of days worked.

Total earnings = $10/hour * 10 hours/day * 10 days = $1000.

So, the worker earned $1000 before going on vacation.

The correct option is 10^3.

The worker earns $10 per hour and works 10 hours a day for 10 days straight before going on vacation.

To calculate the total earnings, we can multiply the worker's hourly rate by the total number of hours worked:

$10/hour * 10 hours/day * 10 days = $1000.

Therefore, the worker earned $1000 before going on vacation, which is equivalent to 10^3 (10 to the power of 3).
