Question

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST A satellite is to be put into an elliptical orbit around a moon as shown below. A vertical ellipse is shown surrounding a spherical object labeled, moon. The moon is a sphere with radius of 567 km. Determine an equation for the ellipse if the distance of the satellite from the surface of the moon varies from 900 km to 169 km. x squared divided by 900 plus y squared divided by 169 = 1 x squared divided by 1467 squared plus y squared divided by 736 squared = 1 x squared divided by 736 squared plus y squared divided by 1467 = 1 x squared divided by 169 plus y squared divided by 900 = 1

Answer 1

Answer:

a=567 km+900 km

a=1,467 km

b=567 km+169 km

b=736 km

x^2/a^2+y^2/b^2=1

x^2/(1,467)^2+y^2/(736)^2=1
