Answer:

71

Explanation:

the circle standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

r being the radius, (h, k) being the coordinates of the center.

fully multiplied that is

x² - 2hx + h² + y² - 2ky + k² = r²

we have here

4x² + 12x + 4y² - 40y - B = 0

our first step is to bring this back to an excision in x² and y². so, we divide everything by 4.

x² + 3x + y² - 10y - B/4 = 0

by comparing this to the general equation we see

3 = -2h

h = -3/2 = -1.5

-10 = - 2k

k = 5

-B/4 = h² + k² - r² = 9/4 + 25 - (3×sqrt(5))² =

= 9/4 + 25 - 9×5 = 9/4 + 25 - 45 = 9/4 - 20

-B = 9 - 80 = -71

B = 71
