x2+y2+z26x+2y+8z4=0x26x+99+y2+2y+11+z2+8z+16164=0x26x+9=(x3)2y2+2y+1=(y+1)2z2+8z+16=(z+4)2,then(x3)29+(y+1)21+(z+4)2164=0(x3)2+(y+1)2+(z+4)2=30(xa)2+(yb)2+(zc)2=R2,thena=3,b=1,c=4,R2=30x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - 6x + 2y + 8z - 4 = 0 \\ x^2-6x+9-9+y^2+2y+1-1+z^2+8z+16-16-4=0 \\ x^2-6x+9 = (x-3)^2\\ y^2+2y+1 = (y+1)^2\\ z^2+8z+16 = (z+4)^2 ,then\\ (x-3)^2 - 9 +(y+1)^2 - 1+(z+4)^2-16-4 = 0\\ (x-3)^2 +(y+1)^2 +(z+4)^2 = 30\\ (x-a)^2 +(y-b)^2 +(z-c)^2 = R^2, then\\ a = 3,b=-1,c=-4, R^2 = 30

Answer:

Equation of a sphere: (x3)2+(y+1)2+(z+4)2=30(x-3)^2 +(y+1)^2 +(z+4)^2 = 30\\

Sphere center С(3, -1, -4)

Radius 30\sqrt{30}
