Question

Equation of a circle..... Again...

The equation of a circle is shown below.

(x + 7)2 + (y + 1)2 = 36

Lee uses the following steps to sketch a graph of the circle.

1. Obtain the center (-7, -1) and radius 6.
2. Write the equation in the form (x - (-7))2 + (y – (-1)2) = 62.
3. Mark the point (-7, -1) on the coordinate axis.
4. Draw a circle through the plot points (-1, -1), (-13, -1), (-7, 5), and (-7, -7).
5. Calculate and plot the points around the center using given radius 6.

What is the correct order of steps to sketch the circle?
