Which statement is false \( x^{2}-3 y^{2}-4 x-6 y-11=0 \)
Complete the squares:
\((x^2 - 4x) - 3(y^2 + 2y) = 11\)
\((x-2)^2 - 4 - 3(y+1)^2 + 3 = 11\)
\((x-2)^2 - 3(y+1)^2 = 12 \Rightarrow \frac{(x-2)^2}{12} - \frac{(y+1)^2}{4} = 1\)
This is a hyperbola with \(a^2 = 12\), \(b^2 = 4\), centre \((2, -1)\).
So both C and D are false.
Answer: (E) Both C and D are wrong
