Answer:

|x -92,950,000| = 1,550,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The positive difference (x) from average will be ...

|x -92,950,000|

We want that to be 1,550,000 so that the only solutions to the equation are the minimum and maximum values of distance.

|x -92,950,000| = 1,550,000 . . . . . where x is earth-sun distance
