In the formula v sub y is equal to A sub y triangle t , what is the value of A sub y for an object in projectile motion?

In projectile motion, the vertical acceleration is caused by gravity. Taking upward as positive, gravity acts downward, so A_y = −9.8 m/s² near Earth’s surface. Therefore, the correct choice is negative 9.8 m/s².
