Answer:
<h2>The standard form: x² + (y + 1)² = 25</h2><h2>The general form: x² + y² + 2y - 24 = 0</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a circle:

(h, k) - center
r - radius
We have the center (0, -1) and the radius r = 5 <em>(look at the picture)</em>.
Substitute:

<em>use (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²</em>
<em>subtract 25 from both sides</em>

You can write the equation using conventional symbols as
3x^2 - 2x - 5 = 0
You can recognize that the middle coefficient is equal to the sum of the other two, so those two coefficients can be used to factor the equation.
(1/3)(3x +3)(3x -5) = 0 . . . . . put the coefficients in the form (1/a)(ax + ...)(ax + ...) (x+1)(3x-5) = 0 . . . . . simplify
The solutions are the values of x that make one or the other of the factors equal to zero.
x = -1
x = 5/3
4+I-15I÷3
4+15÷3
4+5
9
The answer is 9
