Question

How do you graph `(x+3)^2+((y+5)^2)=16`?

Answer 1

Graph as a circle.

Explanation:

This equation can be recognised as the standard equation for a circle, which is `(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2`, where `(h,k)` is the centre of the circle and `r` is the radius.

The example is therefore a circle with centre `(-3,-5)` and radius `4`
