The equation of the curve passing through the point of intersection will be :
x2+y2-2x-4y+1 + A(x2+y2-4x-2y+4) = 0
A is some parameter
x2(A+1) + y2(A+1) + x(-2-4A) +y(-4 - 2A) +1 + 4A = 0
The centre of this circle :( 1+2A/A+1 , A + 2/A+1)
It passes through x+ 2y = 3
Hence, 1 + 2A + 2A + 4 = 3A + 3
5 + 4A = 3A + 3
A = -2
The equation of circle is = x2 + y2 - 6x + 7 = 0
