Answer: 1.48971 x 10^19
Step-by-step explanation: 1-light year is approximately 5.865 x 10^12 which is 5,865,000,000,000 kilometers or 6 trillion miles in 1-year. The Andromeda galaxy is indeed 2.54 million light-years from Earth which is the closest galaxy to our Milky Way Galaxy.
The best way to this is to put this into a scientific calculator. If it shows 1.48971E19, the E stands for exponent and the 19 next to the E stands to the 19th power. That is written as 1,489,710,000,000,000,000 miles!! from Earth. That's a lot of zeros. That's the reason scientific notation is used; to avoid all those zeros and express very small/large figures.
Hope this explanation helps.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 360 degrees in a circle, we can set up the following proportion:
Answer:
1. 208 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. We can break the shape up into a rectangle in the middle and 2 triangles on either side of said rectangle.
The dimensions of the rectangle are 8 in by 20 in, and we only know one leg of the triangle as well as the hypotenuse.
If we know one leg and the hypotenuse we can use the pythagorean theormed to sovle for the other side and get 6 in.
So we have
(8 * 20) + 2((1/2)(6)(8))
160 + 48
208 in^2
