Up and down up and down up and down
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
An ellipse is the locus of a point such that its distances from two fixed points, called foci, have a sum that is equal to a positive constant.
The equation of an ellipse with a center at the origin and the x axis as the minor axis is given by:
Since the distance of the satellite from the surface of the moon varies from 357 km to 710 km, hence:
b = 357 km + 959 km = 1316 km
a = 710 km + 959 km = 1669 km
Therefore the equation of the ellipse is:
X² = 17
To simplify this, you need to find the square root of x², which is x, and the square root of 17.
x = √17
Also remember that when you are using square root, the answer can be either positive or negative.
x = +/-√17 ≈ +/- 4.12
4 + 3(10 - 23)
4 + 3 × (-13)
4 - 39
-35 << answer
