Solution

The equation of a circle is given by (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², where (h, k) are the coordinates of the center of the circle and r is the radius.

In the given equation, (x - 6)² + (y + 5)² = 152, you can see that h = 6 and k = -5.

Therefore, the coordinates of the center of the circle are (6, -5). So, the correct answer is D. (6, -5).
