The center of a circle is at (-5 12) and it has a radius of 16. what is the equation of the circle?

(x+5)^2+(y-12)^2=256
(x+5)^2+(y-12)^2=4
(x-5)^2+(y+12)^2=256
(x-5)^2+(y+12)^2=4

(x+5)^2+(y-12)^2=256

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing the given (x+5)^2+(y-12)^2=256

to                                   (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2,  

we see that h must be -5, k must be 12 and r must be 16.  This is the desired equation of the circle with center at (-5, 12) and radius 16.

answer: the sun

explanation:

water cycle describes the evaporation of water from earth's surface, formation of clouds and precipitation water back onto the surface of earth. seventy percent of the earth is covered with water in the form of seas and oceans. the heat of the sun causes the evaporation of water from the surface of the ocean. the water vapors rise and condense to form water droplets. the collection of these water droplets form clouds which rain down again.

the evaporation of the oceans surface water as part of the water cycle is caused by the sun
