Let me explain why IMO C
p center of circle..
x lies 4.5 from p .. so x lies about .5 from the nearest point on the circle.
now x+y = 9
take the worst case...diametrically opposite point to x would be the other of p.
it is 8+.5 = 8.5 hence still inside the coverage of 9.
so it proves that Y lies outside the circle...
