Answer:
Choice B
Step-by-step explanation:

The eccentricity of this conic section is thus 2/3, the coefficient of cos theta. Clearly, the eccentricity is between o and 1 implying that this conic section represents an Ellipse.
Lastly, the ellipse will open towards the left since we have positive cos theta in the denominator. The only graph that meets the conditions is graph B.
