The correct answer is: $x^2+y^2-2 x+2 y-47=0$
Centre is point of intersection of $2 x-3 y=5$ and $3 x-4 y=7$
$i \cdot e \cdot(1,-1)$
and radius $r$ is such that $\pi r^2=154 \Rightarrow r=7$
Hence, the required equation is
$\begin{aligned} & (x-1)^2+(y+1)^2=7^2 \\ \Rightarrow & x^2+y^2-2 x+2 y-47=0\end{aligned}$
