I apologize for any confusion. Let's solve the equation step by step again.

Given the equation:

\[ z^2 = 264.950495290000 \]

To find \( z \), we'll take the square root of both sides:

\[ z = \sqrt{264.950495290000} \]

Now, calculating this:

\[ z \approx 16.28 \]

Rounding to the nearest tenth:

\[ z \approx 16.3 \]

This confirms the previous calculation. If you were looking for a different interpretation, or if this doesn’t match your expectations, please clarify, and I'll assist you further!
