Answer:

See below for answers and explanations

Explanation:

Part A

The equation is in the form of
(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2, which happens to be the equation of a circle

Part B

For the equation of the circle, its center is at
(h,k)\rightarrow(5,-11)

Part C

Since
r^2=49, then the radius of the circle is
r=7

Part D

The area of a circle is
A=\pi r^2, so the area is
49\pi square units.
