Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \((2,-3)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have, \[ \begin{aligned} & & x^2+2 y^2-4 x+12 y+14=0 \\ \Rightarrow & & (x-2)^2+2(y+3)^2=-14+4+18 \\ \Rightarrow & & (x-2)^2+2(y+3)^2=8 \\ \Rightarrow & & \frac{(x-2)^2}{8}+\frac{(y+3)^2}{8 / 2}=1 \end{aligned} \] \(\therefore \quad\) Centre of ellipse is \((2,-3)\).
