Q:

Which of the following points represents the center of a circle whose equation is (x - 3)2 + (y - 2)2 = 16?

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:A. (3,2)Step-by-step explanation:To find the center of a circle on a quadratic equation all you have to do is to see what´s inside the parenthesis with the X and Y and then you equal that to "0", the number inside the parenthesis is the distance from the center of the circle to the center of the graph.1. (x-3)= 02. x=31.  (y-2)2. Y=2This means that the center of the circle is 3 units away on the positive x axis and the  Y is 2 units away on the positive Y axis.
