This is a more difficult one to explain. Let's start with the line to the right. It has a slope (m) of
= -1 and a y-intercept of +3 (continue the line to see where it crosses the y-axis). So, the equation of that line is: y = -x + 3 when x ≥ 2. This can also be written as y = 3 - x when x ≥ 2. The only option that has that equation is A.
Answer: A
On three does it tells you the data
You have to complete the square. When you do this you get an equation that looks like this: (x-3)^2 + (y+4)^2 = 4. So your center is (3, -4) and your radius is 2. That looks like B to me!!!
Square root of 4 is 2
Square root of 9 is 3
7 is between 4 and 9, so its square root is somewhere between 2 and 3, which means the correct answer is between P and Q
