Infinitely many solutions means that you have the same thing on both sides of the equation no matter what value of x you plug in, right?
We just need both sides to be 3x then, correct?
If a were equal to 3 and b were equal to 0, we'd have
3x = (3)x + 0
Which is essentially 3x = 3x
So that means a = 3 and b = 0 must work!
Let's say x = 5
3(5) = 3(5) + 0
15 = 15 + 0
15 = 15
That means that a = 3 and b = 0 is your final answer :)

The standard equation of a circle is expressed as
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
where
h is the x coordinate of the center of the circle
k is the y coordinate of the center of the circle
r is the radius of the circle(the distance from the center of the circle to the circumference
From the graph,
h = - 1
y = 4
r = 5
By substituting these values into the equation, we have
(x - - 1)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 5^2
(x + 1)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 25
Thus, the equation of the circle is
(x + 1)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 25
