(x+7)2+y2=81(x+7)2+y2=81
Step 1
Step 1.1
Simplify each term.
Step 1.1.1
Rewrite (x+7)2(x+7)2 as (x+7)(x+7)(x+7)(x+7).
(x+7)(x+7)+y2=81(x+7)(x+7)+y2=81
Step 1.1.2
Expand (x+7)(x+7)(x+7)(x+7) using the FOIL Method.
Step 1.1.2.1
Apply the distributive property.
x(x+7)+7(x+7)+y2=81x(x+7)+7(x+7)+y2=81
Step 1.1.2.2
Apply the distributive property.
x⋅x+x⋅7+7(x+7)+y2=81x⋅x+x⋅7+7(x+7)+y2=81
Step 1.1.2.3
Apply the distributive property.
x⋅x+x⋅7+7x+7⋅7+y2=81x⋅x+x⋅7+7x+7⋅7+y2=81
x⋅x+x⋅7+7x+7⋅7+y2=81x⋅x+x⋅7+7x+7⋅7+y2=81
Step 1.1.3
Simplify and combine like terms.
Step 1.1.3.1
Simplify each term.
Step 1.1.3.1.1
Multiply xx by xx.
x2+x⋅7+7x+7⋅7+y2=81x2+x⋅7+7x+7⋅7+y2=81
Step 1.1.3.1.2
Move 77 to the left of xx.
x2+7⋅x+7x+7⋅7+y2=81x2+7⋅x+7x+7⋅7+y2=81
Step 1.1.3.1.3
Multiply 77 by 77.
x2+7x+7x+49+y2=81x2+7x+7x+49+y2=81
x2+7x+7x+49+y2=81x2+7x+7x+49+y2=81
Step 1.1.3.2
Add 7x and 7x.
x2+14x+49+y2=81
x2+14x+49+y2=81
x2+14x+49+y2=81
Step 1.2
Reorder.
Step 1.2.1
Move 49.
x2+14x+y2+49=81
Step 1.2.2
Move 14x.
x2+y2+14x+49=81
x2+y2+14x+49=81
x2+y2+14x+49=81
Step 2
Subtract 81 from both sides of the equation.
x2+y2+14x+49-81=0
Step 3
Subtract 81 from 49.
x2+y2+14x-32=0
