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.

Answer: point F is at <u> 0.6 </u> on the number line
=============================================================
Explanation:
The ratio 2:3 scales up to 2x:3x for some positive real number x.
This means the distance from D to F is 2x units, and the distance from F to E is 3x units. Combine those two smaller distances to get 2x+3x = 5x to represent the full distance from D to E.
D is at -3 and E is at 6. This is a distance of 9 units since |-3-6| = |-9| = 9
Set this equal to the 5x from earlier and solve
5x = 9
x = 9/5
x = 1.8
This leads to 2x = 2*1.8 = 3.6
Therefore, we'll move 3.6 units from -3 to -3+3.6 = 0.6 which is the location of point F on the number line.
Notice that from 0.6 to 6 is 5.4 units and that 3x = 3*1.8 = 5.4 matches up to help confirm the answer.
