- A planet moves in an elliptical orbit around its sun. The closest the planet gets to the sun is approximately 20 Au and the furthest is approximately 30 AU. The sun is one of the foci of the elliptical orbit. Letting the ellipse center at the origin and labeling the axes in AU, the orbit will look like the figure below, use the graph to write an equation for the elliptical orbit of the planet.arrow_forwardFind the equation of the parabolic arch formed in the foundation of the bridge shown. Write the equation in standard form.arrow_forward(a) Write y=2x2+4x+5 in standard form and (b) use properties of standard form to graph the equation.arrow_forward
