 Solve the problem. -A satellite is to be put into an elliptical orbit around a moon. The moon is a sphere with radius 589  \mathrm{km} . Determine an equation for the ellipse, where  \mathrm{x}  and  \mathrm{y}  are measured in  \mathrm{km} , if the distance of the satellite from the surface of the moon varies from  864 \mathrm{~km}  to  174 \mathrm{~km} .   A)   \frac{x^{2}}{1453}+\frac{y^{2}}{763}=1   B)   \frac{x^{2}}{763^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{1453^{2}}=1   C)   \frac{x^{2}}{864^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{174^{2}}=1   D)   \frac{x^{2}}{174}+\frac{y^{2}}{864}=1


A) x21453+y2763=1\frac{x^{2}}{1453}+\frac{y^{2}}{763}=1

B) x27632+y214532=1\frac{x^{2}}{763^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{1453^{2}}=1

C) x28642+y21742=1\frac{x^{2}}{864^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{174^{2}}=1

D) x2174+y2864=1\frac{x^{2}}{174}+\frac{y^{2}}{864}=1
