What is the standard form of the equation of the circle in the graph? (x + 3)^2 + (y + 3)^2 =3 x^2 + y^2 = 9 x^2 + y^2 = 3 (x + 3)^2 + (y + 3)^2 =9

It's center is at (0, 0) which means it's of the form x^2 + y^2 = r^2 so you can already eliminate two answers. So you need to find the radius of the circle... find the distance from the center to a point on the circle.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Once you find the radius, square it, and you'll have the equation x^2 + y^2 = r^2 and can match it to an answer (the r in that equation is radius).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you find the radius?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

never mind. i think the answer is b.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

You find the radius as i said above. Count how many units you have to go across, from the center of the circle, to the edge of the circle.
