Answer:

tilt and orbit of the Earth combine in a way that the axis is inclined away from the sun

Step-by-step explanation:

We have an equinox twice a year. The Spring and Fall equinox. An equinox occurs when the tilt of the Earth's axis and Earth's orbit around the sun combine in such a way that the axis is inclined away from the sun.
