Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf B. \ 2: x^2+(y+4)^2=9}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a circle is:

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

Where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.

We know that the center of the circle is (0, -4) and the radius is 3. Therefore:

  • h= 0
  • y= -4
  • r=3

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex](x-0)^2+(y--4)^2=(3)^2[/tex]

Solve the first parentheses.

  • (x-0)² = (x)²= x²

[tex]x^2+(y--4)^2=(3)^2[/tex]

Solve the next parentheses.

  • (y--4)² = (y+4)²

[tex]x^2+(y+4)^2=(3)^2[/tex]

Solve the exponent.

  • (3)²= 3*3=9

[tex]x^2+(y+4)^2=9[/tex]

This is the finished equation, which corresponds with number 2. Choice B (2): x²+(y+4)²= 9 is correct.
