Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Operations with Functions</u>

Given two functions f(x) and g(x), the following operations are defined:

(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)

(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)

(f*g)(x)=f(x)*g(x)

(f/g)(x)=f(x)/g(x)

We have f(x)=3x+10 and g(x)=2x-4. Use the second formula to find

(f-g)(x)=(3x+10)-(2x-4)

Operating:

(f-g)(x)=3x+10-2x+4

Joining like terms:

(f-g)(x)=x+14

Given the question in the image, the following are the solution steps to answer the question

STEP 1: Write the general equation of an ellipse

$\frac{\mleft(x-h\mright)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-h)^2}{b^2^{}}=1$

STEP 2: Identify the parameters

the length of the major axis is 2a

the length of the minor axis is 2b

$\begin{gathered} 2a=24,a=\frac{24}{2}=12 \\ 2b=20,b=\frac{20}{2}=10 \end{gathered}$

STEP 3: Get the equation of the ellipse

$\begin{gathered} By\text{ substitution,} \\ \frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-h)^2}{b^2}=1 \\ \frac{(x-0)^2}{12^2}+\frac{(y-0)^2}{10^2}=1=\frac{x^2}{144}+\frac{y^2}{100}=1 \end{gathered}$

STEP 4: Pick the nearest equation from the options,

Hence, the equation of the ellipse in the image is given as:

$\frac{x^2}{144}+\frac{y^2}{95}=1$
