Answer

$(x+5)^{2}+(y+2)^{2}=49$ $x^{2}+y^{2}+10x+4y-20=0$

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: $(x-(-5))^{2}+(y-(-2))^{2}=7^{2}$ $(x+5)^{2}+(y+2)^{2}=49$ General form: $x^{2}+10x+25+y^{2}+4y+4=49$ $x^{2}+y^{2}+10x+4y-20=0$
