Answer:
3.84 * 10^8 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
As the speed of light is 300,000,000 meters/second and the time that the light takes to go from the moon to the Earth is 1.28 seconds, we can find the distance using the formula:
Distance = speed * time
So we have that:
Distance = 300,000,000 * 1.28 = 384,000,000 meters
In cientific notation, we need the first number to be in the interval from 1 to 10, so we have 3.84, and we have to multiply by 10^8 to reach our result, so we have:
Distance = 3.84 * 10^8 meters

Answer:
a.) Between 0.5 and 3 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
So I just went ahead and graphed this quadratic on Desmos so you could have an idea of what this looks like. A negative quadratic, and we're trying to find when the graph's y-values are greater than 26.
If you look at the graph, you can easily see that the quadratic crosses y = 26 at x-values 0.5 and 3. And, you can see that the quadratic's graph is actually above y = 26 between these two values, 0.5 and 3.
Because we know that the quadratic's graph models the projectile's motion, we can conclude that the projectile will also be above 26 feet between 0.5 and 3 seconds.
So, the answer is a.) between 0.5 and 3 seconds.
It is 1,000,000x larger:
0.1 / 0.000000001 = 1,000,000
