It cant be a fraction because of the repeating... that is what my math teacher said
The answer to this question is x = 13/9 = 1.444
If planet Y is k times the mean distance from the sun than planet X, the right side of the equation becomes (kA)^3. which is k^3 times the left side, T^2. To equate both sides of the equation, multiply T by k^3/2 so that the left side becomes ((k^3/2) x T)^2 which simplifies into (k^3) x (T^2). Therefore, the answer is k^3/2.
