Answer

center $(0, 7, -3)$, radius $\sqrt{58}$

Work Step by Step

$x^2+y^2+z^2=14y-6z$ $x^2+y^2-14y+z^2+6z=0$ $x^2+y^2-14y+(\frac{-14}{2})^2+z^2+6z+(\frac{6}{2})^2=0+(\frac{-14}{2})^2+(\frac{6}{2})^2$ $x^2+y^2-14y+49+z^2+6z+9=49+9$ $x^2+(y-7)^2+(z+3)^2=58$ This is a sphere with center $(0, 7, -3)$ and radius $\sqrt{58}$.
