Algebra.Com's Answer #245089 by scott8148(6628) You can put this solution on YOUR website! you are correct about the radius ___ sounds like an error in the system somewhere\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the general equation for a circle of radius \"r\" , centered at (h,k) is ___ (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "in this case ___ (x - 1)^2 + (y + 2)^2 = 9 \n" ); document.write( " |
