Answer

$(x-2)^{2}+(y+3)^{2}=16$ $x^{2}+y^{2}-4x+6y-3=0$

Work Step by Step

The standard form of an equation of a circle with radius $r$ and center $(h,k)$ is $(x-h)^{2}+(y-k)^{2}=r^{2}$ When its graph is a circle, the equation $x^{2}+y^{2}+ax+by+c=0$ is the general form of the equation of a circle. --- Standard form: $(x-2)^{2}+(y-(-3))^{2}=4^{2}$ $(x-2)^{2}+(y+3)^{2}=16$ General form: $x^{2}-4x+4+y^{2}+6y+9 =16$ $x^{2}+y^{2}-4x+6y-3=0$
