You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Radius is 4, and center is (A,6).
You need a value for A before you can graph your circle.
a%3C%3EA.

Cannot be made any clearer! You are given apparently the equation for a circle. Read the values from the equation and draw the graph! YOU STILL ARE UNCLEAR ABOUT a or A.

You only indicate the equation %28x-A%29%5E2%2B%28Y-B%29%5E2=R%5E2;
Be sure you know what your variables used are; x or X?
The values given for some make your equation %28x-A%29%5E2%2B%28Y-6%29%5E2=4%5E2.
You can graph nothing until you know what is A.

Last guess is that you really have %28x-5%29%5E2%2B%28y-6%29%5E2=4%5E2, but you are mishandling variable names. If this last equation were your actual equation, then center is at (5,6) for the circle of radius 4.
