Answer:

A

Explanation:

Equation describing a circle: (x - x0)^2 + (y - y0)^2 = r^2

  • (x0, y0) is the centre
  • r is short for radius

The given equation is: (x + 3)^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 4

=> (x - (-3))^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 2^2

  • Coordinates of the centre: (-3, 1)
  • Radius: 2

Therefore, the answer is A.
