Answer:

see attached

Explanation:

You want the graph of the circle defined by the equation ...

(x-2)^2 + (y-7)^2 = 4.

Circle equation

The equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius r is ...

(x -h)² +(y -k)² = r²

Comparing this to the given equation, we see ...

h = 2, k = 7, r² = 4

Then r = √4 = 2.

The circle will have its center at (2, 7) and will have a radius of 2. It is shown in the attached graph.
