On average, the circular eye of a hurricane is about 15 miles in diameter. Gale winds can affect an area up to 300 miles from th storm’s center. In 1992, Hurrican Andrew devastated southern Florida. A satellite photo of Andrew’s landfall shows the center of its eye on one coordinate system could be approximated by the point (80, 26). Write an equation to represent a possible boundary of Andrew’s eye.

@Haseeb96 ?

OpenStudy (pinklion23):

(x - 80)^2 + (y - 26)^2 = 15^2

thanks

OpenStudy (pinklion23):

np have another one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea one more

OpenStudy (pinklion23):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

write the equation for the circle with center (-11,-10) and radius 8 units

OpenStudy (pinklion23):

uhh hold on let me think :P

OpenStudy (pinklion23):

is it multiple choice? that would make it easier :)

OpenStudy (pinklion23):

(x+11)^2 + (y+10)^2 = 64

OpenStudy (pinklion23):

that is what i think :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its (x+11)^2+(y+10)^2=64

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

OpenStudy (pinklion23):

yeah you did it :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks so much haha

OpenStudy (pinklion23):
