A negative times a negative is a positive. I am not sure if that's the question, but hopefully that helps if it was.

Because if something is a double negative, than the result of it would be a positive. So, it is kind of like this...

-1 x -1 = --1

-1 x -1 = 1

So, --1 = 1.

Hope this helps!!!

The orbit of the planet Venus is nearly circular. An astronomer develops a model for the orbit in which the sun has coordinates

klio [65]

Since the Venus orbits round the sun, the sun is the center of the circular path of the revolution of the planet, Venus.

Thus, the distance of the planet, Venus fron the sun is given by the distance between the points (0, 0) and (41, 53).

Recall that the distance between two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ is given by $d= \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Thus, the distance between the points (0, 0) and (41, 53) is given by:

$d= \sqrt{(41-0)^2+(53-0)^2} \\ \\ = \sqrt{41^2+53^2} = \sqrt{1,681+2,809} \\ \\ = \sqrt{4,490} =67 \ units$

Given that each unit of the plane represents 1 million miles, therefore, the distance from the sun to the Venus is 67 million miles.
