Solution
Let's work through each problem step by step:
1. Find the center and radius of the circle and sketch its graph.
Given the equation:
First, we simplify this equation:
Subtract 155 from both sides:
Now, divide the entire equation by 9:
Next, complete the square for both and :
- For , take half of 4 and square it: .
- For , take half of 8 and square it: .
So, add and subtract these values inside the equation:
Now, we have the equation of the circle in standard form:
