Answer 3

help :/

Answer 4

\[(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2\]
is the equation of a circle whose center is (h,k) and whose radius is r

Answer 5

so is it this ?

Answer 6

That is the center of the circle. What is the radius?

Answer 7

5 ?

Answer 8

Also how would I label the x and y intercepts ?

Answer 9

Did you notice that the 5 is NOT the radius? It is the SQUARE of the radius.

Answer 10

so sqrt5 ?

Answer 11

yes

Answer 12

Okay so 2.23 right left up and down to create the circle ?

Answer 13

Yes. 2.24 in all directions.

Answer 14

okay can you tell me how i could find the x and y intercept ?

Answer 15

Find the x intercept by replacing y with 0
Find the y intercept by replacing x with 0

Answer 16

Okay thanks bro!
