Answer:
a. longitudinal
Explanation:
A longitudinal study examines a given group over a long period of time, so collecting data from the same group of 30 people over their lifetime certainly fits that definition. It's more like an evolution study.
A cross-sectional compares different groups at the same point in time. So, it's more like a survey.
A microgenetic is much focused in time, providing multiple data sets in a short time to examine rapid evolution of a subject.
An experimental study design will make interactions and experiments with the study group, while this is not the case here apparently, and experimental is usually for a much shorter period than a generation.
The first thing you have to realize is that
tangent is the
slope of a curve on a given point. You can solve for the slope by finding the derivative of the given function. So:
Next use
product rule (I recommend watching videos if you're confused):
Next substitute you x-value (π/2) into your derivative:
So our slope at π/2 is 1. Next we use our slope-form and substitute our given value and solve for y-intercept (algebra-stuff)
So we get our equation:
So our answer is E
