Answer: (6, -5)

Explanation:

The general equation of a circle is given by :-


(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2, where (h,k) is center and r is radius of the circle.

Given : The equation of a circle :
(x-6)^2+(y+5)^2=15^2


\Rightarrow\ (x-6)^2+(y-(-5))^2=15^2

Comparing to the general equation of circle , we get


(h,k)=(6, -5)

Hence, the coordinates of the center of the circle = (6, -5)
