Answer: the first option is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The center of the circle is (-6, -3)
The formula for determining the equation of a circle us expressed as
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
Where
r represents the radius of the circle
h and k represents the x and y coordinates of the center of the circle. Comparing with the given points,
h = - 6 and k = - 3
Radius, r = 12
Substituting into the formula, it becomes
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
(x - - 6)² + (y - - 3)² = 12²
(x + 6)² + (y + 3)² = 144
