find the radius r and the center (h,k) of the following circle
3(x-3)^2 + 3y^2 = 75
.
Circle equation:

where
(h,k) is the center
r is the radius
.
Starting with what was given:

Dividing both sides by 3:



.
center is at (3,0)
radius is 5

Compare to the general equation of a circle of radius R centered at (h,k),

.
.
.
(h,k)=(3,0)
R=5
