Correct Answer: $\cos \left(\frac{\pi}{3}+x\right)$
Solution : Given, $\frac{\cos x-\sqrt{3} \sin x}{2}$ = $\frac{1}{2} \cos x-\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\sin x$ = $\cos x \cos \frac{\pi}{3} - \sin \frac{\pi}{3} \sin x$ [$\because\cos \frac{\pi}{3}=\frac{1}{2}$ and $\sin \frac{\pi}{3}=\frac{\sqrt3}{2}$] = $\cos( \frac{\pi}{3}+x)$ Hence, the correct answer is $\cos( \frac{\pi}{3}+x)$.
