The temperature of a chemical reaction ranges between 20 degrees Celsius and 160 degrees Celsius. The temperature is at its lowe

st point when t = 0, and the reaction completes 1 cycle during an 8-hour period. What is a cosine function that models this reaction?

Answer:

The cosine function that models this reaction is:

y=-70cos(\frac{1}{4}\pi x) +90

Step-by-step explanation:

The general cosine function has the following form

y = Acos(bx) + k

Where A is the amplitude: half the vertical distance between the highest peak and the lowest peak of the wave.

\frac{2\pi}{b} is the period: time it takes the wave to complete a cycle.

k is the vertical displacement.

The maximum temperature is 160 and the minimum is 20. Then the amplitude A is:

A =\frac{160-20}{2}\\\\A= 70

The reaction completes a cycle in 8 hours

Then the period is 8 hours.

Thus:

\frac{2\pi}{b}=8\\\\ b=\frac{2\pi}{8}\\\\ b=\frac{1}{4}\pi

The function is:

y = 70cos(\frac{1}{4}\pi x)+k

when t=0 y is minumum therefore y=-cos(x)

So

y = -70cos(\frac{1}{4}\pi x)+k

Now we substitute t = 0 in the function and solve for k

20 = -70cos(0)+k\\\\k=20+70\\\\k=90

Finally

y=-70cos(\frac{1}{4}\pi x) +90

How do I do this problem?
mixer [17]
This kind of problem is easy and hard as the same times.

First you need to find the common factor then take a square root

384=8*8*6 so the answer is 8n^6n

^ = square root ( sorry. Don't know how to do that on a pothole )

Factor 64b-16c to identify the equivalent expressions. *
scoray [572]

Answer:

The factored form of this would be 16(4b - c)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, look for the greatest common factor of 16 and 64. You can do this by listing out their factors. Once this is done and we identify 16 as the GCF, we can then put that on the outside of the parenthesis and divide all the terms inside by that number.

Answer:

The value of r=\frac{-106}{47}

The value of x=\frac{83}{32}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A) \frac{2r-2}{7r+10} = \frac{9}{8}

Now,

\frac{2r-2}{7r+10} = \frac{9}{8}

8(2r-2)=9(7r+10)

16r-16=63r+90

-16-90=63r-16r

-(16+90)=47r

-106=47r

r=\frac{-106}{47}

B) \frac{x+4}{9} = \frac{3(x-2)-1}{5}

Now,

\frac{x+4}{9} = \frac{3(x-2)-1}{5}

5(x+5)=9[3(x-2)-1]

5x+25=9[3x-6-1]

5x+25=9[3x-7]

5x+25=27x-63

25+63=27x+5x

83=32x

x=\frac{83}{32}
