Answer


c. It divides the radius by 2.



Explanation

The general equation of a circle is

(x-h)² + (y-k)² = r²

Where (h, k) makes the coordinates of the circle and r the radius.


x² + y² = 25 For this equation,


center (0, 0)

Radius = √25 = 5


4x² + 4y² = 25 First simplify this equation

4x² + 4y² = 25 ⇒ x² + y² = 25/4


center (0, 0)

Radius = √(25/4) = 5/2


The radius has been divided by 2
