You want to buy something that costs $98, and it's on sale for 30% off. What is the item's sale price?
First, convert the 30% to a real mathematical number. For percents, this is always done by dividing the 30% by 100%, or 30% / 100% = 0.300.

Second, find out what 30% of $98 is. This is the amount of the sale discount. This is always found by mulitplying 0.300 by the item's cost $98, like this:

0.300 x $98 = $29.40.
So for this sale, you'll save $29.40 on this item.

This means, the cost of the item to you is

$98 - $29.40 = $68.60.

identify the amplitude and period of the function then graph the function and describe the graph of G as a transformation of the

mrs_skeptik [129]

Given the function:

$g(x)=cos4x$

Let's find the amplitude and period of the function.

Apply the general cosine function:

$f(x)=Acos(bx+c)+d$

Where A is the amplitude.

Comparing both functions, we have:

A = 1

b = 4

Hence, we have:

Amplitude, A = 1

To find the period, we have:

$\frac{2\pi}{b}=\frac{2\pi}{4}=\frac{\pi}{2}$

Therefore, the period is = π/2

The graph of the function is shown below:

The parent function of the given function is:

$f(x)=cosx$

Let's describe the transformation..

Apply the transformation rules for function.

We have:

The transformation that occured from f(x) = cosx to g(x) = cos4x using the rules of transformation can be said to be a horizontal compression.

ANSWER:

Amplitude = 1

Period = π/2

Transformation = horizontal compression.
