Answer:
(-5,9+√8)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two ways in which you can find a point that lies in the circle. One of them is to do y the subject of the formula, and another one is to determine the center of the circumference, and with the information of the radius, you can sum this value upward or downward.
the general equation of a circle is:

with center at (h,k)
you have the following equation:

Then, the center is (-5,9)
if you sum the value of the radius in one of the fourth directions (up, down, left, right), for example upward you have

Then, one point that lies in the circle is (-5,9+√8)
The midpoint, where the rest area is, will just be the average of the coordinates of Springfield and Columbus.
Rest Area=((1+7)/2, (-4+1)/2)
Rest Area=(4, -1.5)
The distance between the two cities can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem, which used in the manner is often referred to as the "distance" formula between two points.
d^2=(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)
d^2=(7-1)^2+(1--4)^2
d^2=36+25
d^2=61
d=√61 and we are told that each unit is equal to 5.38mi so the distance from Springfield to Columbus is:
D=5.38√61 mi
D≈42.02mi (to nearest hundredth of a mile)
You answered correctly.
