If x represents distance measured east of downtown, and y represents distance measured north of downtown, the circle of radius 40 centered at (-2.5, -2.8) will have an equation of the form
  (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
where the center is (h, k) and the radius is r. The locus of points 4 miles from USC will satisfy the equation
  (x +2.5)² + (y + 2.8)² = 1600
