Answer:

14.2 is the diameter.

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius squared = 52.

What you have given is the general equation of the circle with a center at (2,-3) and a radius of sqrt(52)

You can break the 52 down.

sqrt(52) = sqrt(4 * 13) = 2 sqrt(13). Notice that 4 is a perfect square.

d = 2*radius.

d = 2(2 sqrt(13) )

d = 4 sqrt(13)

That is the diameter. You want it to the nearest 1/10

d = 14.222 but it is to the nearest 1/10

d = 14.2
