A circle with the equation (x + 3)2 + (y - 2)2 = 25 is reflected over the line x = 2.

What is the equation of the image?

So the circle has and equation of (x+3)2+(y-2)2=25 and its reflected over the line of two. So first in your problem is to simplify the function which could represent the y=mx+b. So it goes like this:
2x+6+2y-4=25
-2y=-2x-6+25
y=-2x-6+25/-2
y=x-25/2

so it means the answer would be in this kind of formula and i hope you can solve it cause im confused also so here is the formula:
(x-h)2-(y-k)2=25
