question 59

Multiple Choice

Solve.
-A planet's orbit about the Sun can be described as an ellipse. Consider the Sun as the origin of a rectangular coordinate system. Suppose that the x-intercepts of the elliptical path of the planet are $\pm 139,000,000$ and that the $y$ -intercepts are $\pm 124,000,000$ . Write the equation of the elliptical path of the planet.

• A) \(\frac { x ^ { 2 } } { 1.5376 \times 10 ^ { 16 } } + \frac { y ^ { 2 } } { 1.9321 \times 10 ^ { 16 } } = 1\)
• B) \(\frac { x ^ { 2 } } { 1.39 \times 10 ^ { 8 } } + \frac { y ^ { 2 } } { 1.24 \times 10 ^ { 8 } } = 1\)
• C) \(\frac { x ^ { 2 } } { 1.9321 \times 10 ^ { 16 } } + \frac { y ^ { 2 } } { 1.5376 \times 10 ^ { 16 } } = 1\)
• D) \(\frac { x ^ { 2 } } { 1.24 \times 10 ^ { 8 } } + \frac { y ^ { 2 } } { 1.39 \times 10 ^ { 8 } } = 1\)
