The graph of the equation of the ellipse is x²/20 + y²/3 = 1 is attached

Which graph represents the equation of the ellipse.

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

x²/20 + y²/3 = 1

From the above, we have the center of the parabola to be the origin

This is so because the equation of an ellipse centered at the origin is represented as

x²/a² + y²/b² = 1

Set x = 0

So, y = b

Set y = 0

So, x = a

This means that the equation passes through the points (20, 0) and (3, 0)

The graph of the equation of the ellipse is x²/20 + y²/3 = 1 is attached
