Условие
The Sun’s differential rotation can be estimated with the equation , where is the angular velocity in degrees per day, is solar latitude, and , , and are constants (equal to 15, -2.5, and -2 degrees per day respectively). Two sunspots are spotted along the same solar meridian, one at and the other at . Assuming that the sunspots do not disappear or change latitude and move with the same velocity as the surface of the sun, after how many days will the sunspots be aligned once again? Round your answer to the nearest day.
A. 142
B. 202
C. 262

Solution: C: 262
for is per day and for is per day. The faster sunspot must travel exactly one rotation more than the slower sunspot for them to be aligned again, so
Thus, we have
