Since you haven't asked any question about this equation I'll presume that you would like to find out what conic section it represents.
Group the terms like this:
Complete the square in the y-terms by adding 9 to both sides.
Simplify.
Compare this with the standard form for a circle with center at (h, k) and radius = r:
This is the standard form for a circle.
This is your equation.
What conclusion can you draw?
