Detailed Solution

Let the equation of the circle be x2+y2+2gx+2fy+c=0. It touches x-axis at a distance 3 from the origin. Therefore, c=g2 and the circle passes through (±3, 0).

    9±6g+c=0    9±6g+g2=0(g±3)2=0g=3    c=g2c=9

The circle cuts an intercept of length 27 on y-axis.

 2f2c=27f29=7f=±4

Hence, the equations of the circles are

   x2+y26x±8y+9=0
