To write 280,000,000 in scientific notation, we move the decimal point 8 places to the left to make it a number between 1 and 10. Therefore, it becomes 2.8. The exponent is then 8, since we moved the decimal point 8 places.

The correct answer is c) 2.8 × 10^8.

To add (2.8 × 10^-9) and (9.1 × 10^-10), we need to make sure the exponents are the same. We can do this by changing (9.1 × 10^-10) to (0.91 × 10^-9).

Now we can add the two numbers:
(2.8 × 10^-9) + (0.91 × 10^-9) = (2.8 + 0.91) × 10^-9 = 3.71 × 10^-9.

The correct answer is d) 3.71 × 10^-9.

To find the difference between the football team's total payroll and the baseball team's total payroll, we subtract the baseball team's total payroll from the football team's total payroll.

(2.9 × 10^11) - (2.44 × 10^9) = (2.9 - 0.0244) × 10^11 = 2.8756 × 10^11

The correct answer is d) 2.8756 × 10^11 dollars.

To find out how many times larger one number is than another, we can divide the larger number by the smaller number.

(6.255 × 10^10) / (1.5 × 10^8) = (6.255 / 1.5) × 10^(10-8) = 4.17 × 10^2

So, 6.255 × 10^10 is 417 times larger than 1.5 × 10^8.

The correct answer is d) 417.
