Answer:
\boldsymbol{(x - 5)^2 + (y + 7)^2 = 36}

=========================================

Work Shown:


(h,k) = (5,-7) = \text{center}\\\\r = 6 = \text{radius}\\\\(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2\\\\(x - 5)^2 + (y - (-7))^2 = 6^2\\\\\boldsymbol{(x - 5)^2 + (y + 7)^2 = 36}\\\\

The equation is:

(x-5)^2+(y-(-7))^2=36

I hope it helps!
