(-2x) (x-3) answer please

Pls! does anybody know a shortcut for answering these types of questions in the future?

How is the equation of this circle written in standard form? x2 + y2 - 6x + 14y = 142 a) (x - 3)2 + (y + 7)2 = 200 b) (x+ 3)2 + (y - 7)2 = 200 (x - 6)2 + (y + 14)2 = 142 d) (x+6)2 + (y- 14)2 = 142

Will mark brainlist what is the slope of the line passing through the points (-2, -8) and (-3,-9)? -7/5-5/71-1
