Answer:
The average distance from Earth to the Sun is 92.95 million miles 1. The actual distance varies from the average by up to 1.55 million miles 1. Let’s use d to represent the distance from Earth to the Sun.
We can write an absolute value equation to find the minimum and maximum distance from Earth to the Sun as follows:
|d - 92.95| = 1.55
Solving for d, we get:
d - 92.95 = 1.55 or d - 92.95 = -1.55
d = 94.5 or d = 91.4
Therefore, the minimum and maximum distance from Earth to the Sun are 91.4 million miles and 94.5 million miles, respectively 2.
