Which equation represents a circle that contains the point (-5,-3) and has a center at (-2,1)

The equation of circle is:

Solution:

The general form of equation is given as:

Where, "r" is radius of circle and (a, b) is center of circle

Given that center at (-2, 1)

a = -2 and b = 1

Substitute (a , b) = (-2, 1) and (x, y) = (-5, -3) in general equation

Substitute r = 5 and (a, b) = (-2, 1) in general equation

Thus the equation of circle is found

-22

times both sides by 2, times () by 8, add alile terms, move terms, add alike and caculate divide both sides by 3
