The function represents a <em>cosine</em> graph with axis at y = - 1, period of 6, and amplitude of 2.5.
<h3>How to analyze sinusoidal functions</h3>
In this question we have a <em>sinusoidal</em> function, of which we are supposed to find the following variables based on given picture:
- Equation of the axis - Horizontal that represents the mean of the bounds of the function.
- Period - Horizontal distance needed between two maxima or two minima.
- Amplitude - Mean of the difference of the bounds of the function.
- Type of sinusoidal function - The function represents either a sine or a cosine if and only if trigonometric function is continuous and bounded between - 1 and 1.
Then, we have the following results:
- Equation of the axis: y = - 1
- Period: 6
- Amplitude: 2.5
- The graph may be represented by a cosine with no <em>angular</em> phase and a sine with <em>angular</em> phase, based on the following trigonometric expression:
cos θ = sin (θ + π/2)

A) The membership cost starts at $23 and it adds $6 every year. The 23 would be your b and the 6 would be your slope, m, in the form y=mx+b.
y=6x+23
This equation means that you're starting at 23 dollars and adding 6 dollars with every x you add.
B) 2009-1995=14 This means that there's 14 years that the cost increased. 14*6=$84 The membership cost increased by anther $84 over the 14 years. You have to add 84 to 23 to find your total=$107.
C) Set $85 equal to 6x+23
85=6x+23
6x=62
x≈10
10 years later the cost will be $85.
1995+10=2005
