You can put this solution on YOUR website!
solve this quadratic equations:
Find the center of the following equation x^2-y^2+24+4y+28=0:
---
(x-0)^2 -(y^2-4y+?) = -52
(x-0)^2 -(y^2-4y+4) = -52-4
(x-0)^2 -(y-2)^2 = -56
(y-2)^2 - (x-0)^2 = 56
Center: (0,2)
====================
Note: I think your post of the problem is missing something.
You are probably missing an "x" term.
