The way I figured this one out was saying that if it takes 2lbs to stretch it to 12 inches and 5lbs to stretch to 18 inches that means that 3 additional pounds = 6 inches. Therefore, each additional pound is 2 inches. We know already that with 2 lbs it was 12 inches in length and we can also say that 2 lbs = 4 inches. So subtract 4 from 12 and you end up with the answer of 8 inches.

1. y+5=-x-5
2. y=-x-5-5
3.y=-x-10
4. y=x-10
_______________________
1. distribute negative sign
2. move the constant to the right and change the sign
3. -5-5 equals -10, bring everything down
4. change the sign of the x to positive, the equation is in standard form
ANSWER
The length of a Diameter is 3.714
EXPLANATION
The circumscribed triangle is shown in the attachment.
We use the cosine ratio to find the altitude of the isosceles triangle.


Altitude =8cos(60°)
Altitude=4cm
Let the upper half of the altitude be y cm.
Then the radius of the circle is (y-4)cm
The upper radius meets the tangent at right angles.
From the smaller right triangle,






y=1.857
The diameter is 2y

=2(1.875)
The length of a Diameter is 3.714
