The equation for a circle is (x-h)^2 +(y-k)^2=r^2
You just have to plug in your coordinates h is the x and k is the y.
The r is radius squared.
so, (x-2)^2+(y-(-5)^2=144
You have to be careful of those tricky negative values. When you distribute the y-(-5) it turns into y+5.
So your answer is D.

What is 3 1/2 - 2 5/7 and show the work

Hunter-Best [27]

$3 \frac{1}{2} -2 \frac{5}{7} = \frac{(3\cdot2)+1}{2} - \frac{(2\cdot7)+5}{7} = \frac{7}{2} - \frac{19}{7} \\\\= \frac{7\times 7}{2\times 7} - \frac{19\times 2}{7\times 2} = \frac{49}{14} - \frac{38}{14} \\\\= \frac{49-38}{14} =\boxed{\bf{\frac{11}{14}}}$
