Hurricane Andrew landed at Lafayette LA in 1992. when Lafayette was in the eye of the hurricane its outer boundary stretched to Vicksburg Mississippi. If Lafayette LA is 260 miles from Vicksburg, MS, write an equation for the circle occupied by the hurricane assign Lafayette the coordinates (0,0).

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: solve one of the equations for one of the variables. let's solve the first equation for y:

step 2: substitute that equation into the other equation, and solve for x.

step 3: substitute x = 4 x = 4 x=4 into one of the original equations, and solve for y.
