Answer:

The answer to your question is letter B.

Explanation:

Data

Center = (-10, 6)

radius = 8

Process

1.- To find the answer to your question just substitute the values in the standard form of the circle.

Equation

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

h = -10

k = 6

r = 8

Substitution

(x + 10)² + (y - 6)² = 8²

Simplification

(x + 10)² + (y - 6)² = 64
