Answer

The equation of the sphere with center at $a,b,c$ and radius $r$ can be written as: $(x-a)^2 +(y-b)^2+(z-c)^2=r^2$

Work Step by Step

The equation of the sphere with center at $a,b,c$ and radius $r$ can be written as: $(x-a)^2 +(y-b)^2+(z-c)^2=r^2$ Let us consider an example: The equation of the sphere with center at the origin and with radius $8$ can be written as: $(x-0)^2 +(y-0)^2+(z-0)^2=(8)^2$ $x^2+y^2+z^2=64$
