Question
Find an equation of a sphere with the specified characteristics. center $(2,5,-7)$ and tangent to the $y z$ -plane
Step 1
The distance from the center of the sphere to the $yz$-plane is equal to the radius of the sphere. Since the $x$-coordinate of the center is $2$, the radius of the sphere is $2$. Show more…
