PLEASE HELP Using the following equation, find the center and radius: x2 -2x + y2 - 6y = 26 (5 points) The center is located at (-1, -3), and the radius is 36. The center is located at (1, 3), and the radius is 36. The center is located at (-1, - 3), and the radius is 6. The center is located at (1, 3), and the radius is 6. (I think it's the third one but i'm not sure)

yeah. the final equation that I got was (x-1)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 6^2
the answer ended up being the last one.
it was a multiple choice question.
nope it was 26. in our geometry class they taught us that when we complete the quadratics, when we add the ending to the quadratics ( so like in this case the 1 and 9) we also add them to the ending number, in this case 26 to make it 36. ((idk if this makes any sense to you with the way that I worded it))
