Answer:
The equation of the boundary of the region is (x+2)² + (y-1)² = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
The satellite is positioned at (-2,1) and can sense the presence within 5 miles of its position.
The boundary of the region is a circle with center (-2,1) and radius 5.
The equation of the circle with center (h,k) and radius r is given by
(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r²
The equation of the circle with center (-2,1) and radius 5 is given by
(x+2)²+(y-1)²=5²=25
(x+2)² + (y-1)² = 25 is the required equation of the boundary of the region.
