The best answer is C) y=4.75 * cos(0.52x - 2.08) + 7.65

Unfortunately, the two only ways to solve this problem are to either graph all the options or plug in time values for x and see which agrees the most with the tide chart. Both are time-consuming, but I chose to graph each one with a graphing application. 
Plugging in a few values for x confirms that C is the best function. 
12pm (x=0)
y = 4.75 * cos(0 - 2.08) + 7.65
y = 5.334
2pm (x=2)
y= 6.5
4pm (x=4)
y=12.4
It is not a perfect representation, but the shape of the graph and closeness to the points given is the best of the four options provided.

Plz help me if u do u a good person
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

f(x)=-2x+9

f(4)+3=?

let x equal to 4

f(4)=-2(4)+8

f(4)=-8+9=+1

f(4)=1

then add 3 to f(4)

f(4)+3=1+3

f(4)+3=4

and he need f(4)+3 so the answer is

4

that's it

Which is an equation of the line through (-1, -4) and parallel to 3x+y=5
kherson [118]

Answer:

<h2>         b)  y = -3x - 7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + y = 5         {subtract 3x from both sides}

y = -3x + 5         ←  slope-intercept form

y=m₁x+b₁   ║   y=m₂x+b₂   ⇔    m₁ = m₂

{Two lines are parallel if  their slopes are equal}

y = -3x + 5    ⇒   m₁ = -3    ⇒    m₂ = -3

(-1, -4)  ⇒  x₁ = -1,  y₁ = -4

The point-slope form:

y - (-4) = -3(x - (-1))

y + 4 = -3(x + 1)

y + 4 = -3x - 3              {subtact 4 from both sides}

<h3><u>y = -3x - 7 </u><u>        ←    slope-intercept form</u></h3>
