Detailed Solution

Let point P(h, k) & Q(p, q)
Equation of circle by using diameter form
(x – h) (x – p) + (y – k) (y – q) = 0
(where h, p are the roots of x24x6=0 and k, q are the roots of  y2+2x7=0
x2+y24x+2y13=0
Now, Compare it with the given equation, we get
a = -2, b = 1, c = -13, Now, a + b – c = 12
