campbell_st · Answer

the circle has a centre at (-3, 5) and radius of 6

the general form or the circle is 

(x-k)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2     centre at (h, k) radius r

hope it helps

btaylor · Answer

graph the center, then move 6 units to the right, left, up, and down. Then connect them to form a circle.
