Answer:

The fraction of students who likes soccer or basketball is 7/10.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have two groups of students, the group a is the one that prefers soccer, while the second group is the one that prefers basketball. We then need to find the fraction that represents the students that are in either group, in these cases we need to take the fractions of each group and sum them. So we have:

soccer OR basketball = soccer + basketball

soccer OR basketball = 2/5 + 3/10

Through LMC we have:

soccer OR basketball = (2*2 + 3)/10 = (4 + 3)/10 = 7/10

The fraction of students who likes soccer or basketball is 7/10.

One may note the country's name is not finline or Finley, is Finland.

so, in short, if we take 137 to be the 100%, how much is 18.036 in percentage off of it?

18.036&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{137}{18.036}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{18.036\cdot 100}{137}

Write one sine and one cosine equation for each graph below.
pychu [463]

Answer:

Q13. y = sin(2x – π/2); y = - 2cos2x  

Q14. y = 2sin2x -1; y = -2cos(2x – π/2) -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 13

(A) Sine function

y = a sin[b(x - h)] + k

y = a sin(bx - bh) + k; bh = phase shift

(1) Amp = 1; a = 1

(2) The graph is symmetrical about the x-axis. k = 0.

(3) Per = π. b = 2

(4) Phase shift = π/2.  

2h =π/2

h = π/4

The equation is

y = sin[2(x – π/4)} or

y = sin(2x – π/2)

B. Cosine function

y = a cos[b(x - h)] + k

y = a cos(bx - bh) + k; bh = phase shift

(1) Amp = 1; a = 1

(2) The graph is symmetrical about the x-axis. k = 0.

(3) Per = π. b = 2

(4) Reflected across x-axis, y ⟶ -y

The equation is y = - 2cos2x  

Question 14

(A) Sine function

(1) Amp = 2; a = 2

(2) Shifted down 1; k = -1

(3) Per = π; b = 2

(4) Phase shift = 0; h = 0

The equation is y = 2sin2x -1

(B) Cosine function

a = 2, b = -1; b = 2

Phase shift = π/2; h = π/4

The equation is

y = -2cos[2(x – π/4)] – 1 or

y = -2cos(2x – π/2) - 1
