Answer: (x +7)^2 +(y +6)^2 = 9

Explanation:

The given circle appears to be centered at (-7, -6) and have a radius of 3. The standard form equation of a circle is ...

(x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2 . . . . . . circle of radius r centered at (h, k)

For (h, k) = (-7, -6) and r=3, your circle is ...

(x -(-7))^2 +(y -(-6))^3 = 3^2

(x +7)^2 +(y +6)^2 = 9

i hope this helps btw i did not copy n paste l got 100% on this
