OpenStudy (herpderp):

I think b has no solution because none of the circles touch

OpenStudy (herpderp):

but a is a bit confusing.

OpenStudy (herpderp):

i think a has one solution because they all meet at one point

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

Yes, a has one solution, b has no solutions

OpenStudy (herpderp):

Is my reasoning correct then?

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

The case where they have infinitely many solutions is when the circles are all on top of each other

OpenStudy (bahrom7893):

Correct.
