Answer:

[tex](x+1)^2+(y+4)^2=97[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Equation of a circle centered at (h,k):

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex] where r is the radius

1) Plug in the center

[tex](x-(-1))^2+(y-(-4))^2=r^2\\(x+1)^2+(y+4)^2=r^2[/tex]

2) Plug in the given point and solve for r²

[tex](x+1)^2+(y+4)^2=r^2[/tex]

Plug in (-5,5)

[tex](-5+1)^2+(5+4)^2=r^2\\(-4)^2+(9)^2=r^2\\16+81=r^2\\r^2=97[/tex]

3) Plug r² back into the equation

[tex](x+1)^2+(y+4)^2=r^2\\(x+1)^2+(y+4)^2=97[/tex]

I hope this helps!
