Mars<span> and Earth orbit the </span>sun<span> at different speeds: Earth has an inside track and gets around the sun more quickly. Plus, both have elliptical orbits, rather than perfect circles. So the distance to Mars from Earth is constantly changing. In theory, the closest the planets could come together would be when Mars is at its </span>closest point<span> to the sun (</span>perihelion) and Earth is at itsfarthest point<span> (</span>aphelion<span>). In that situation, the planets would be 33.9 million miles (54.6 million kilometers) from each other. But that has never happened in recorded history. The closest known approach was 34.8 million miles (56 million km) in 2003 ....... :D!

The solutions of the equations for x are given as follows:
a. x = 36.
b. x = 15.
<h3>What is the solution for item a?</h3>
The equation for item a is given by:
x/3 - 5 = 7
Isolating x, we have that:
x/3 = 12
x = 3 x 12
x = 36.
<h3>What is the solution for item b?</h3>
The equation for item b is given by:
x/2 - 5 = 2.5
Isolating x, we have that:
x/2 = 7.5
x = 7.5 x 2
x = 15.
Hence the solutions are:
a. x = 36.
b. x = 15.

30?
30pi = 2pi r
30pi / 2pi = 15
15 = r
double the radius to get the diameter

The giraffe (using the ruler) is 11 cm.
1 cm : 50 cm
Multiply both sides by 11.
11 cm : 550 cm
There are 0.01 meters in 1 centimeter.
Multiply 550 cm by 0.01.
(550)(0.01) = 5.5
The giraffe's real length is 5.5 meters.
