  1. A \(5 x^{2}+3 y^{2}=32\)
  2. B \(3 x^{2}+5 y^{2}=32\)
  3. C \(5 x^{2}-3 y^{2}=32\)
  4. D \(3 x^{2}+5 y^{2}+32=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(3 x^{2}+5 y^{2}=32\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let equation of ellipse be \(\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1\) Since it passes through the points \((-3,1)\) and \((2-2)\)…
