Question

Sketch the graph of the equation 
(x+5)2 + y2 = 16
 how would you graph this?

anonymous · Answer

solve for y first. y= mx+b

anonymous · Answer

its clear its open shape ,its ends goes to infinity

best way .. set x=0 and get y   ( 0,y)
and set y =0 and get x             (x,0)
then take random points between ...

x= 1,2,3,4,5,6, etc
y =  
and plot
good luck

This is the equation of a circle
center is (-5,0) and radius 2

anonymous · Answer

Precal .. its not square .. cause x not to the power 2.
the bracts multiplied by 2

I have a strong feeling the asker did not input the equation in correctly.
I believe it is 
$$\left( x+5 \right)^{2}+y^2=16$$
