Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Just by looking at the graph you can eliminate some silly answers such as D and B, everything besides the slope is obvious at least:
The y int is -2
The line is negative
The standard parent function equation is just y = x with a slope of 1.
This graph is clearly a bit steeper than the normal parent function, so it has a slope that is great than -1, not less . So the only answer left is A
If you want to be sure, you can calculate the slope using rise over run and the slope should be somewhat close to -1.5 which is equal to -3/2
Thanks me later :)
The quadratic term is 2x^2.
ANSWER
EXPLANATION
If the graph of y=cosx is transformed to y=a cos (x−c)+d by a vertical compression by a factor of 1/3 and a translation 2 units down,
then
a=1/3
and d=-2.
The 'c' is a phase shift since it is not given, it means it is zero.
Therefore the new equation is:
y=1/3cos(x-0)−2
This simplifies to:
y=1/3cosx−2
The correct option is C.
