User: what is the path called when the planets move arond the sun?

Weegy: The path of the Sun across the celestial sphere is very close to that of the planets and the moon. [ After clocks became available, it was a relatively straightforward job for astronomers to relate the path of the Sun in the daytime to the one of stars at night, and to draw it on their star charts. Because of its relation to eclipses, that path is known as the ecliptic. http://mig.rssi.ru/mirrors/stern/stargaze/Secliptc.htm ]

The paths the planets follow around the sun are called Orbit and they are shaped like an ellipse.

Earth makes one complete rotation on its axis every 23 hours and 56 minutes, which is rounded up to 24 hours.

limit (x²-1)/(x-1) = x+1.
Weegy: 5/7(x+y)-1/7(x-1)= 5x + 5y/7 - x - 1/7 = 5x - x + 5y - 1/7 = 4x + 5y - 1/7
