The choices are missing, but we can solve the problem from the given information

Answer:

The equation which represents the circle is (x - 2)² + (y + 1)² = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation of a circle is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², where

  • (h , k) are the coordinates of its center
  • r is the radius of it

∵ The coordinates of the center of the circle are (2 , -1)

∴ h = 2 and k = -1

The radius of the circle is the segment whose join the center of the circle and any point on the edge of the circle

∵ The circle passes through point (-2 , -1)

∴ The radius of the circle is the distance from the center (2 , -1)

    and the point (-2 , -1)

The y-coordinates of the two points are equal that means the radius is a horizontal segment and its length is the difference between their x-coordinates

∵ r = 2 - (-2)

∴ r = 4

Now let us substitute h, k, and r in the form of the equation of the circle

∵ (x - 2)² + (y - -1)² = (4)²

∴ (x - 2)² + (y + 1)² = 16

The equation which represents the circle is  (x - 2)² + (y + 1)² = 16

Which of the following is equal to the product of 32 and 1/4 ?
Oxana [17]

Hey there!

The answer to your question is 8

In math, the "product of" represents multiplication, so we multiply the 2 numbers.

32 x 1/4 = 8

Hope this helps! Good luck, and have a great day!
