The problem asks to identify the graphical representation of the given region:

\[
S = \{ (x, y) \in \mathbb{R}^2 : x^2 + y^2 < 4 \quad \text{and} \quad A(x-2)^2 + y^2 \leq (x+2)^2 + y^2 \}
\]

Let's break down the two parts of the inequality:

1. **First condition: \(x^2 + y^2 < 4\)**  
   This inequality represents the interior of a circle centered at the origin \((0, 0)\) with radius 2. Graphically, this would be a filled circle with radius 2, centered at the origin.

2. **Second condition: \( A(x-2)^2 + y^2 \leq (x+2)^2 + y^2 \)**  
   This part is more complex. We can analyze it by simplifying:
   
   \[
   A(x-2)^2 + y^2 \leq (x+2)^2 + y^2
   \]
   The \(y^2\) terms cancel out, leaving:
   
   \[
   A(x-2)^2 \leq (x+2)^2
   \]
   Now, if we expand both sides:
   \[
   A(x^2 - 4x + 4) \leq x^2 + 4x + 4
   \]
   We can now group like terms and solve for \(x\), but for this problem, this is used to determine a more complicated boundary constraint for the region.

Looking at the options, **B** seems to show two semi-circles, one at the top and one at the bottom, matching the general pattern of the constraints from the inequalities.

Hence, the correct graphical representation is **B**.

Would you like further details or explanations on any part of this? 

Here are 5 questions related to this:

1. What is the general form of the equation for a circle in Cartesian coordinates?
2. How do inequalities involving circles affect the region represented on a graph?
3. What role does the constant \(A\) play in modifying regions or boundaries?
4. How would the graph change if \(A\) were a different value?
5. How can you generalize inequalities for other shapes, like ellipses or hyperbolas?

**Tip:** When analyzing inequalities, always start by interpreting each condition separately, then combine their effects for a full picture of the region.
