Answer:

  (x +1)^2 +(y +0.5)^2 = 22.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of the circle is the midpoint of the diameter, so is ...

  (h, k) = ((-5, -3) +(3, 2))/2 = (-5+3, -3+2)/2 = (-1, -1/2)

The circle formula is then ...

  (x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2

  (x -(-1))^2 +(y -(-1/2))^2 = r^2

We can find r^2 by substituting one of the points for (x, y).

  (3 +1)^2 +(2 +1/2)^2 = r^2 = 16 +6.25 = 22.25

Then the circle equation is ...

  (x +1)^2 +(y +0.5)^2 = 22.25
