Answer:
a.) 13 students
b.) 53 members
Step-by-step explanation:
a.) In the given equation of y=4x+13, "x" represents how many years have gone by since the club had started. The number "13" in this equation represents the y-intercept, or the value of "y" when x = 0. Therefore, when "x" is 0 years, there were 13 students in the clubs, meaning that the original group that started the club contained 13 students.
b.) Since the question asks how many members that the club will have after their tenth year and you already know that "x" in the equation y=4x+13 represents the number of years since the club started, all you have to do is plug 10 in for "x" in the equation; so, the equation will now look like this: y=4(10)+13. Keeping PEMDAS in mind, you first multiply 4 and 10 to get 40, and then you add 13 to get an answer of 53 members after year 10.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Congruent Triangles</u>
The figure shows two triangles FCD and FED. One of their sides is the radius of the circle, they both form a 90° angle with the line CD and ED and they share the same segment FD.
Thus, both triangles are congruent and we have the length of a side (12 units), one common side (the hypotenuse) and one unknown leg that must be equal. Therefore
Solving
The required side FD is the hypotenuse of any of the triangles. The unknown leg can be calculated by
Or
Thus
Solving
