that equation has to be wrong because it gives me a decimal
U do 3x3 then u get 9 then u do it again and u get 9 and multiply 9 by 9 and get 81
Do you have any answer choices?

Thus the two circles touches each other internally.
Since the circle touches each other internally. The point of contact P divides C

Therefore, coordinates of P are-

−6x−9y−13
+x+8y+13=0
4x−7y−13=0
Hence the point of contact is (5,1) and the equation of common tangent is 4x−7y−13=0.
