The graph of f(x) = 3.2x-3 is shown below. g(x) is a transformation of f(x).
1 answer:
Answer:
C. g(x) = 3·2^x +2
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph of g(x) appears to be a translation upward of the graph of f(x).
__
To find the equation of g(x), we can add 5 to f(x), since the translation appears to be 5 units. (The y-intercept of f(x) is 0; the y-intercept of g(x) is 5.)
g(x) = f(x) +5
g(x) = (3·2^x -3) +5
g(x) = 3·2^x +2
__
You can also determine the correct choice by looking at the value at x=0:
A. g(0) = 3 +6 = 9
B. g(0) = 1 +3 = 4
C. g(0) = 3 +2 = 5 . . . . matches g(0) on the given graph
D. g(0) = 3

Answer:
The cosine function to model the height of a water particle above and below the mean water line is h = 2·cos((π/30)·t)
Step-by-step explanation:
The cosine function equation is given as follows h = d + a·cos(b(x - c))
Where:
= Amplitude
2·π/b = The period
c = The phase shift
d = The vertical shift
h = Height of the function
x = The time duration of motion of the wave, t
The given data are;
The amplitude = 2 feet
Time for the wave to pass the dock
The number of times the wave passes a point in each cycle = 2 times
Therefore;
The time for each complete cycle = 2 × 30 seconds = 60 seconds
The time for each complete cycle = Period = 2·π/b = 60
b = π/30 =
Taking the phase shift as zero, (moving wave) and the vertical shift as zero (movement about the mean water line), we have
h = 0 + 2·cos(π/30(t - 0)) = 2·cos((π/30)·t)
The cosine function is h = 2·cos((π/30)·t).
