A diameter of circle \(C_1\) has endpoints \((-3,-5)\) and \((7,3)\).

(a) Find its equation. [3]

Two equal circles C1 and C2 after translation by vector 8,4, intersecting at R and S

\(C_1\) is translated by \(\begin{pmatrix}8\\4\end{pmatrix}\) to give \(C_2\).

(b) Find the equation of \(C_2\). [2]

The circles intersect at \(R,S\).

(c) Show that \(RS\) is \(y=-2x+13\). [4]

(d) Hence show that their \(x\)-coordinates satisfy \(5x^2-60x+159=0\). [2]
