The position of a planet that a closest to and farthest from the sun are called its perihelion and aphelion respectively. We know that the Earth orbits around the Sun (as one focus) in an elliptical orbit with the perihelion distance of 1.47 x 108 km and the aphelion distance of 1.52 x 108 km. Find the Cartesian equation of the elliptical orbit.

Pluto travels around the sun in an elliptical path with the sun at one focus. The minor axis of its orbit is 10,000,000,000 km. Find the distance between Pluto and the sun at perihelion, the vertex closest to the sun. Then find the distance between Pluto and the sun at aphelion, 6. the further vertex from the sun.
