Explanation:

since you said equation I'm assuming it's in terms of x and y Just as a general equation

since the centre of the circle isn't at 0, you have to take that into account using the formula above. solve for the radius of the circle by substituting (4,0) into the formula and get your r value to replace in the original formula
