Answer:
None
Step-by-step explanation:
The center of the ellipse is at (2, 4)
The length of the x axis is a= (8-2) =6
The length of the y axis is b=(16-4) = 12
The formula for an ellipse is
(x-h) ^2 (y-k)^2
----------- + -------------- = 1^2
a^2 b^2
where (h,k) is the center
and a and b are the lengths of the major and minor axes
(x-2) ^2 (y-4)^2
----------- + -------------- = 1
6^2 12^2
none of your choices have b>a and for the ellipse to be vertical b>a
For this case we have to, by defining properties of powers and roots the following is fulfilled:
![\sqrt [n] {a ^ m} = a ^ {\frac {m} {n}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%20%5Bn%5D%20%7Ba%20%5E%20m%7D%20%3D%20a%20%5E%20%7B%5Cfrac%20%7Bm%7D%20%7Bn%7D%7D)
We must rewrite the following expression:
![\sqrt [3] {8 ^ {\frac {1} {4} x}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%20%5B3%5D%20%7B8%20%5E%20%7B%5Cfrac%20%7B1%7D%20%7B4%7D%20x%7D%7D)
Applying the property listed we have:
![\sqrt [3] {8 ^ {\frac {1} {4} x}} = 8 ^ {\frac{\frac {1} {4} x} {3} }= 8 ^ {\frac {1} {4 * 3} x} = 8 ^ {\frac {1} {12} x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%20%5B3%5D%20%7B8%20%5E%20%7B%5Cfrac%20%7B1%7D%20%7B4%7D%20x%7D%7D%20%3D%208%20%5E%20%7B%5Cfrac%7B%5Cfrac%20%7B1%7D%20%7B4%7D%20x%7D%20%7B3%7D%20%7D%3D%208%20%5E%20%7B%5Cfrac%20%7B1%7D%20%7B4%20%2A%203%7D%20x%7D%20%3D%208%20%5E%20%7B%5Cfrac%20%7B1%7D%20%7B12%7D%20x%7D)
Using the property again we have to:
![8 ^ {\frac {1} {12} x} = \sqrt [12] {8 ^ x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=8%20%5E%20%7B%5Cfrac%20%7B1%7D%20%7B12%7D%20x%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%20%5B12%5D%20%7B8%20%5E%20x%7D)
Thus, the correct option is option C
