Chapter 7.2, Problem 85E

Solve each problem.

Comet Hale-Bopp Comet Hale-Bopp, which was clearly seen in April of 1997, orbits the sun in an elliptical orbit every 4200 years. At perihelion, the closest point to the sun, the comet is approximately 1 AU from the sun, as shown in the accompanying figure. At aphelion, the farthest point from the sun, the comet is 520 AU from the sun. Find the equation of the ellipse. What is the eccentricity of the orbit?

Solve the linear system of equations attached using Gaussian elimination (not Gauss-Jordan) and back subsitution. Remember that: A matrix is in row echelon form if Any row that consists only of zeros is at the bottom of the matrix. The first non-zero entry in each other row is 1. This entry is called aleading 1. The leading 1 of each row, after the first row, lies to the right of the leading 1 of the previous row.
