A circle is drawn on a coordinate plane with the center point at (7,−2)

Question

and a radius of 4. In the standard form of the Pythagorean Theorem, (x−h)2+(y−k)2=r2
, which number would replace the variable h?(1 point)
h=

Answer 1

In the equation of a circle given by \((x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2\), the point \((h, k)\) represents the center of the circle.

For the circle you described, the center is at the point \((7, -2)\). Therefore, \(h\) corresponds to the x-coordinate of the center.

Thus, the value of \(h\) is:

\[ h = 7 \]
