Answer:

7.65 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance that diver will travel.  

We have been given that a scuba diver is exploring at an elevation of -12.2 meters. As the diver rises to the surface, she plans to stop and rest briefly at a reef that has an elevation of -4.55 meters. We are asked to find the distance that diver will travel.

The initial elevation plus x will be equal to -4.55 meters. We can represent our given information in an equation as:

-12.2+x=-4.55

-12.2+12.2+x=-4.55+12.2

x=7.65

Therefore, the scuba diver will travel a vertical distance of 7.65 meters.

Anybody know the right answer?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

If we just have

y = \cos x

that's an amplitude of 1 and a period of 2\pi

Let's modify this step by step.

Amplitude of 4. Four times the amplitude means a factor of 4 on the outside.

y = 4 \cos x

Period of π. Double the period means a factor of 2 on the inside.

y = 4 \cos(2x)

Horizontal shift of π/2 to the left. To the left means adding a positive number to x. The question appear ambiguous. It's not clear to me if we add to x or 2x; let's make it

y = 4 \cos(2(x + \frac \pi 2))

Vertical shift of 3:

y = 3 + 4 \cos(2(x + \frac \pi 2))

y = 3 + 4 \cos(2x +  \pi)

Depending on the interpretation of the phase shift, that pi may be a pi/2.

Answer: 3 + 4 \cos(2x +  \pi)
