If the circle

{x^2} + {y^2} + 6x - 2y + k = 0

bisects the circumference of the circle

{x^2} + {y^2} + 2x - 6y - 15 = 0

, then

k

is equal to

View answer and explanation

Correct option: D

- 23

Option D (

- 23

) is correct because it is derived from the condition that the first circle bisects the circumference of the second circle, implying that the common chord passes through the center of the second circle.
