The equations of three distinct circles are listed below. Using complete sentences, explain which of the three circles would intersect the x-axis only. Justify your answer. (3 points: 1 point for the answer and 2 points for the justification)
Circle A: (x – 9)^2 + (y – 3)^2 = 25
Circle B: (x – 7)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 49
Circle C: (x + 2)^2 + y^2 = 16
