Let the centre of the circle be C(h,k)  Since, it touches the x−axis at P(−3,0),   CP⊥ x−axis and h=−3  since, the centre lies on the line 2x+y+1=0  ⇒2(−3)+k+1=0⇒k=5  (a) coordinate of C=(−3,5)  (b) radius= 5units  (∵CP⊥x−axis)  (c) equation of the circle:        (x−h)^2 +(y−k)^2 =r^2   ⇒(x+3)^2 +(y−5)^2 =5^2   ⇒x^2 +6x+9+y^2 −10y+25=25  ⇒x^2 +y^2 +6x−10y+9=0
