Answer:

  • C. (x + 3)² + (y - 6)² = 4

Explanation:

Get the center and radius from the graph.

  • Center is: (-3, 6)
  • Radius is: 2

Use the circle formula:

  • (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

We have:

  • h = -3, k = 6, r = 2

Substitute and get the equation:

  • (x - (-3))² + (y - 6)² = 2² ⇒
  • (x + 3)² + (y - 6)² = 4

Correct choice is C
