Answer

$b, d, e, g$

Work Step by Step

The center of the circle must be have a negative $x$ value and $y=0$. a. $(x-2)^2 + y^2 =3$ center $(2,0)$ : $\times$ b. $(x+2)^2 + y^2 =3$ center $(-2,0)$ : $\checkmark$ c. $x^2 + (y-2)^2 =3$ center $(0,2)$ : $\times$ d. $(x+2)^2 + y^2 =4$ center $(-2,0)$ : $\checkmark$ e. $x^2 + y^2 + 10x + 16 = 0$ $(x+5)^2 + y^2=9$ center $(-5,0)$ : $\checkmark$ f. $x^2 + y^2 + 10x - 2y = 1$ $(x+5)^2 + (y-1)^2 = 27$ center $(-5,1)$ : $\times$ g. $x^2 + y^2 + 9x + 10 = 0$ $(x+4.5)^2 + y^2 = 10.25$ center $(-4.5,0)$ : $\checkmark$ h. $x^2 + y^2 - 9x - 10 = 0$ $(x-4.5)^2 + y^2 = 30.25$ center $(4.5,0)$ : $\times$
