HELP!!! 30 pts!

The circle below is centered at the point (-2, -3) and has a radius of length 3. Write the equation for the circle.

Answer 1

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

Explanation:

Center = (-2, - 3) = (h, k)

Radius (r) = 3

Equation of circle in centre radius form is given as:

`(x - h) ^2 + (y - k) ^2 = r^2 \\</p><p>\therefore \{x - (-2)\}^2 + \{y - (-3)\}^2 = 3^2 \\</p><p> \purple {\boxed {\bold {\therefore(x + 2)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 9}}}`

Answer 2

(X+2)power of 2 + (y + 3)power of 2 = 9
