Step-by-step explanation

We are to write the equation of the circle in standard form

Given theequation:


x^2+6x+y^2-4y=-9
\left(x−a\right)^2+\left(y−b\right)^2=r^2\:\:\mathrm{is\:the\:circle\:equation\:with\:a\:radius\:r,\:centered\:at}\:\left(a,\:b\right)

Using completing the square method


\left(x-\left(-3\right)\right)^2+\left(y-2\right)^2=2^2

Thus, we will have the answer to be


(x+3)^2+(y-2)^2=2^2

Where


\begin{gathered} (a,b)=(-3,2) \\ r=2 \end{gathered}
