Need help with this question! Will attach pic! A satellite is to be put into an elliptical orbit around a moon as shown below.Th

e moon is a sphere with radius of 1000 km. Determine an equation for the ellipse if the distance of the satellite from the surface of the moon varies from 953 km to 466 km

An equation for the ellipse ( standard form ):
x²/a²  +  y²/b² = 1
Here is:  a - semi-major axis and b - semi-minor axis.
Radius of the moon is 1,000 km and the distance from the surface of the moon to the satellite varies from 953 km to 466 km.
a = 1,000 + 953 = 1,953 km
b = 1,000 + 466 = 1,466 km
Answer:
The equation is  x² / 1,953²  + y² / 1,466² = 1
or: x²/3,814,209  +   y²/2,149,156  = 1

Answer:

First part

P(X< 3.4-0.6*3.1) = P(X

And for this case we can use the z score formula given by:

z = \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}

And using this formula we got:

P(X

And we can use the normal standard table or excel and we got:

P(Z

Second part

For the other part of the question we want to find the following probability:

P(-1.715

And using the score we got:

P(-1.715

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-1.65< Z< 1.210)=P(Z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the data of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(3.4,3.1)  

Where \mu=3.4 and \sigma=3.1

First part

And for this case we want this probability:

P(X< 3.4-0.6*3.1) = P(X

And for this case we can use the z score formula given by:

z = \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}

And using this formula we got:

P(X

And we can use the normal standard table or excel and we got:

P(Z

Second part

For the other part of the question we want to find the following probability:

P(-1.715

And using the score we got:

P(-1.715

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-1.65< Z< 1.210)=P(Z
