    Stella is correct about center and wrong about radius

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Equation of circle with (h, k) as center and radius r is given by,

    (x-h) ² + (y-k) ² = r²

    Here equation is

    x²-8x+y²+2y=5

    Changing in to (x-h) ² + (y-k) ² = r² form

    x²-8x + 16 - 16 + y²+2y+1 - 1=5

    (x-4) ² - 16 + (y+1) ² - 1 = 5

    (x-4) ² + (y+1) ² = 22

    (x-4) ² + (y+1) ² = 4.69²

    Center is (4,-1) and radius is 4.69

    Stella is correct about center and wrong about radius
