a. The center of the circle will be the coordinate point of the marked point inside the circle.
center: (3,-5)
The radius is the distance between the center and any point on the circle.
radius: 4 units
b. standard form for circles: (x-h)²+(y-k)²=r² where (h,k) is the center
standard form: (x-3)²+(y+5)²=16
c. Simplify equation in standard form to get general form.
(x-3)²+(y+5)²=16
x²-6x+9+y²+10y+25=16
general form: x²+y²-6x+10y+18=0

15:24 is divisible by 3, simplifying it down to 3:8. 19:24, 7:8, and 6:8 are all obviously larger than this ratio, and 1:2 can be equalized to 4:8, which is also bigger than 3:8, so none of the answer choices are less than 15:24.
