The daily low temperature in guangzhou, China, varies over time in a periodic way that can be modeled by a trigonometric functio

n.
The period of change is exactly 1 year. The temperature peaks around july26 at 78°F, and has its minimum half year later at 49°F. Assuming a year is exactly 365 days, July 26 is 206/365 of a year after January 1.

Answer:

T(t) = 14.5 \cos(2\pi(t -\frac{206}{365} )) +63.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature peaks around july26 at 78°F, and has its minimum half year later at 49°F. Assuming a year is exactly 365 days, July 26 is 206/365 of a year after January 1.

Find the formula of the trigonometric function that models the daily low temperature T in Guangzhou t years after January 1, 2015. Define the function using radians

The function can be written as ...

T = A \cos(2\pi(t -\frac{206}{365} )) +B

where A is half the difference of the high and low temperature values, and B is the average of the high and low temperature values.

A =\frac{ (78-49)}{2}  \\\\=\frac{29}{2}  \\\\= 14.5

B = \frac{(78 +49) }{2} \\\\= \frac{127}{2}  \\\\= 63.5

The value 206/365 is the horizontal right shift of the peak of the function. That makes the peak occur on July 26, as required.

Filling in these values gives us the function ...

T(t) = 14.5 \cos(2\pi(t -\frac{206}{365} )) +63.5

Thepotemich [5.8K]
16:24 students made at least 80% on the test. The question is what is the ratio of students who scored below an 80% to the total number of students. 8:24 would be the right answer, but since it is asking for the answer in the simplest form, it would be 1:3.

What is the product of (2p+7)(3p+4p-3)
Alex

Answer:

The answer is C=6p3 + 29p2 + 22p – 21

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the product, we need to multiply each member of each multiplier:

(2p + 7)(3p2 + 4p – 3) = 2p · 3p² + 2p · 4p + 2p · -3 + 7 ·3p² + 7 · 4p + 7 · -3

                                   =    6p³     +     8p²    -     6p    + 21p²   +  28p   -     21

                                   = 6p³ + 8p² + 21p² + 28p - 6p -21

                                   = 6p³ + 29p² + 22p - 21

Therefore, the product of (2p + 7)(3p2 + 4p – 3) is 6p³ + 29p² + 22p -21

U guys are mean and never answer my questions, like i paid for no one to answer my question
Sav [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You have no grounds for making a statement like that.  There are a variety of reasons why you might not get immediate answers.  Be patient.

I will do the second part of this question (finding the first three numbers):

a(4) = a(3)*(-3) + 2 = -148, so a(3)*(-3) = -150 and a(3) = -50

a(3) = 50

a(2) = a(3)*(-3) + 2 = 50, so -3*a(3) = 48 and a(d) = -16

a(1) = a(2)*(-3) + 2 = -16, so a(2)*(-3) = -18 and a(1) = 6

The procedure for finding a(5), a(6) and a(7) is exactly the same.

complette the square to get vertex form or y=a(x-h)^2+k
(h,k) is vertex
1. group x terms, so for y=ax^2+bx+c, do y=(ax^2+bx)+c <span> <span> </span> 2, factor out the leading coefinet (constant in front of the x^2 term), basicallly factor out a </span><span> <span> </span> 3. take 1/2 of the linear coefient (number in front of the x), and square it ,then add negative and positive of it inside parnthases </span><span> <span> </span> 4. complete the squre and expand </span>


so
y=-1/4x^2+4x-19
group
y=(-1/4x^2+4x)-19
undistribute -1/4
y=-1/4(x^2-16x)-19
take 1/2 of -16 and squer it to get 64 then add neg and pos inside
y=-1/4(x^2-16x+64-64)-19
factorperfect square
y=-1/4((x-8)^2-64)-19
expand
y=-1/4(x-8)^2+16-19
y=-1/4(x-8)^2-3
vertex is (8,-3)
