Question

how do you graph this? (x+2)^2+(y+1)^2=121
I simplified it to x^2+y^2=116 but I don't know if I was supposed to do that... HELP!

Answer 1

(x+2)^2+(y+1)^2=121

(x-(-2))^2+(y-(-1))^2=11^2

so this is a circle with

center: (-2, -1)

radius: 11

Answer 2

So, I'm no artist, but does it look like this?
