Question

Give the equation for a circle with the given center and radius.

Center at (2, -9), radius = 3

A. (x+2)^2+(y−9)^2=9
B. (x+9)^2+(y−2)^2=3
C. (x−9)^2+(y+2)^2=3
D. (x−2)^2+(y+9)^2=9

Answer 1

D.) (x−2)2+(y+9)2=9

Explanation:

I got it correct on founders edtell

Answer 2

(x-2)^2 + (y+9)^2 = 9

Explanation:

The equation of a circle is given by

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius

(x-2)^2 + (y--9)^2 = 3^2

(x-2)^2 + (y+9)^2 = 9
