k = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's rewrite the equations in their slope-intercept forms:

y = \frac{1}{3}x + 2\:\:\:\:\:\:\:(1)

y = kx + 12\:\:\:\:\:(2)

In order for Eqn(2) to be perpendicular to Eqn(1), the slope of Eqn(2) must be the negative reciprocal of that of Eqn(1). Therefore, k = -3.

The equation of a circle is just (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2= r^2
in place of h you just put the x-coordinate of the center
in place of k you put the y-coordinate of the center
and in place of r you put the radius
So your answer is just (x-1)^2+(y-4)^2=4 (first choice)
