In a solar system, two comets pass near the sun, which is located at the origin. Comet E is modeled by (Y+162 (y+13) x2 1, where all measurements are in astronomical units. Part A: What are the vertices for the path of Comet E? Show your work. (4 points) Part B: Which comet travels closer to the sun? Give evidence to support your answer. (5 points) Part C: What key feature does the sun represent for both comets? Give evidence to support your answer. (6 points) = 1 and Comet H is modeled by
