Answer:

A(t)=0.5cos(12\pi\cdot t)+4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Function Modeling</u>

Since the air in the lungs goes periodically from a minimum value to a maximum value, we can simulate its behavior as a sinusoid. Selecting a sine or a cosine will depend on the initial condition we'll assume since the question doesn't provide one. We'll set the initial state when the lungs are at maximum air content. The sinusoid that starts from maximum is the cosine, so our model is

A(t)=A_ocos(wt)+M

Where Ao is the amplitude of the oscillation, w is the angular frequency and M is the midline or y-displacement of the wave.

The values of A run from a min of 3.5 to a max of 4.5. That gives us twice the amplitude, thus

\displaystyle A_o=\frac{4.5-3.5}{2}=0.5

The vertical displacement or midline can be found as the shift from the center value:

\displaystyle M=\frac{4.5+3.5}{2}=4

We also know the cycle repeats 6 times per minute. If the time is expressed in minutes, then the frequency is f=6

Knowing that

w=2\pi f

Then

w=12\pi

The model is

\boxed{A(t)=0.5cos(12\pi\cdot t)+4}

where t is expressed in minutes

Use the number line to answer the question. Each tick represents 1 unit.
Yanka [14]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially, you are describing the position of point K using the location of the other points on the graph.

<u>Let's start listing some descriptions:</u>

K is:

<em>3 more than H</em>

<em>2 more than J</em>

<em>3 less than L</em>

<em>4 less than M</em>

<em>7 less than N</em>

<em>12 less than P</em>

<em />

<u>Now look at the answer choices and compare it to what we wrote.</u>

We see that the answer choices A, B, and D are incorrect (based on what we wrote), and that answer choice C is correct.

<u>[C. 7 less than N] is the correct answer.</u>

PLEASE HELP ME WITH BOTH QUESTIONS<br> THANKS!!
vitfil [10]

First one:

cos(A)=AC/AB=3/4.24

cos(B)=BC/AB=3/4.24

Cos(A)/cos(B)=AC/AB / (BC/AB) = AC/AB * AB/BC = AC/BC=3/3=1


Second one:

To solve this problem, we have to ASSUME AFE is a straight line, i.e. angle EFB is 90 degrees. (this is not explicitly given).

If that's the case, AE is a transversal of parallel lines AB and DE.

And Angle A is congruent to angle E (alternate interior angles).

Therefore sin(A)=sin(E)=0.5

Solve the equation in the complex number system. x^2-12x+40=0
mylen [45]

solving the equation x^2-12x+40=0 we get x=6+2i\,\,and\,\,x=6-2i

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the equation:

x^2-12x+40=0

We can solve using quadratic Formula:

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

a= 1, b = -12, c = 40

Putting values:

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\x=\frac{-(-12)\pm\sqrt{(-12)^2-4(1)(40)}}{2(1)}\\x=\frac{12\pm\sqrt{144-160}}{2}\\x=\frac{12\pm\sqrt{-16}}{2}\\We\,\,know\,\,\sqrt{-1}=i\\ x=\frac{12\pm4i}{2}\\ x=\frac{12+4i}{2}\,\,and\,\, x=\frac{12-4i}{2}\\ x=\frac{4(3+i)}{2}\,\,and\,\, x=\frac{4(3-i)}{2}\\x=2(3+i)\,\,and\,\,x=2(3-i)\\x=6+2i\,\,and\,\,x=6-2i

So, solving the equation x^2-12x+40=0 we get x=6+2i\,\,and\,\,x=6-2i
