+309 You work for a telecommunications company and need to analyze the outcome of a proposed new cell tower project. Cell phone radio towers broadcast a cell phone signal in a circular pattern.
The company currently has cell phone towers in the locations described in the table.
Tower Location Coverage radius (mi)
A Adele Acres 4
B Brown Lake – located 5 miles east and 4 miles north of Adele Acres 3
C Cady City – located 4 miles east and 4 miles south of Adele Acres 5
1. Write the standard form of the equation representing the coverage area for each tower. Use Adele Acres as the origin.
Answer:
2. Write the general form of the equation representing the coverage area for each tower. Use Adele Acres as the origin.
Answer:
3. Other towns near Adele Acres are listed in the table. Which towns presently do not receive service from towers A, B, or C?
Town Directions from Adele Acres
Dower 2 miles west, and 5 miles north
Eagleston 6 miles west, and 13 miles north
Freetown 7 miles due west
Georgeville 2 miles west, and 6 miles south
Hilda Hills 8 miles west, and 7 miles south
Ivy 2 miles east, and 2 miles north
Johnstown 5 miles east, and 6 miles north
Kerry 8 miles east, and 6 miles south
Long River 2 miles east, and 8 miles south
4. The proposal being considered places a new tower with center of Hilda Hills, and the coverage radius will be 7 miles.
(A) Write the standard form of the equation representing the coverage provided by the proposed tower.
(B) Write the general form of the equation representing the coverage provided by the proposed tower.
(C) Will any of the 9 cities listed in the table not be serviced by these 4 towers? If so, name the cities.

1) Standard Form
Adele Acres - x^2 + y^2 = 16
Brown Lake - (x - 5)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 9
Cady City - (x - 4)^2 + (y + 4)^2 = 25
2) General Form
Adele Acres - x^2 + y^2 - 16 = 0
Brown Lake - x^2 + y^2 - 10x - 8y + 32 = 0
Cady City - x^2 + y^2 - 8x + 8y + 7 = 0
3) See the graph :
