I have a strange hunch that there's some more material or previous work
that goes along with this question, which you haven't included here.
I can't easily find the dates of Mercury's extremes, but here's some of the
other data you're looking for:
Distance at Aphelion (point in it's orbit that's farthest from the sun):
<span><span><span><span><span>69,816,900 km
0. 466 697 AU</span>
</span>
</span>
</span>
<span>
Distance at Perihelion
(</span></span><span>point in it's orbit that's closest to the sun):</span>
<span><span><span><span>46,001,200 km
0.307 499 AU</span> </span>
Perihelion and aphelion are always directly opposite each other in
the orbit, so the time between them is 1/2 of the orbital period.
</span><span>Mercury's Orbital period = <span><span>87.9691 Earth days</span></span></span></span>
1/2 (50%) of that is 43.9845 Earth days
The average of the aphelion and perihelion distances is
1/2 ( 69,816,900 + 46,001,200 ) = 57,909,050 km
or
1/2 ( 0.466697 + 0.307499) = 0.387 098 AU
This also happens to be 1/2 of the major axis of the elliptical orbit.
Answer A is incorrect
A crest is just one point. It is not the distance between 2 crests.
B is incorrect
A trough is just 1 point. It is not the distance between 2 troughs.
C is incorrect.
the amplitude measures the height of a crest from the middle of the wave to the crest (or trough).
D is the correct answer. That is the distance between 2 crests or 2 troughs
If a student took seven science classes, his/her at score would be 1200.
<h3>What is a graph?</h3>
A graph is a relationship in which data is presented on the axes of cartesian coordinates. The presentation of the graph must be such that it is easy to read off the graph.
Now we can see that the graph is a plot of SAT scores versus the number of science classes that students take. In this case, the slope would tell us the score per subject of a student in the SAT.
a) The mathematical model that re[resents this graph is;
y =100x + 500
b) The slope of the graph must be obtained by the use of two points thus;
m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1
m = 600 - 500/1 - 0
m = 100
c) Using the relation;
y = mx + c
m = 100
c = 500
y = 100(7) + 500
y = 1200
Thus if a student took seven science classes, his/her at score would be 1200.
