Answer:
(x - 7)² + (y + 10)² = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation formula for a circle is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², where the center of the circle is the ordered pair (h, k) and r represents the radius (in units).

Now, we take the given information and plug it into the formula.
radius = 2
center (7, -10), h = 7, k = -10

(x - 7)² + (y - (-10))² = (2)²
(x - 7)² + (y + 10)² = 4

The equation of the circle is (x - 7)² + (y + 10)² = 4
