F ( x ) = a cos ( b ( x - c ) ) + d
Apmlitude: a = ( 12 - 52 ) / 2 = -40 / 2 = - 20
If the curve takes 6.25 hours from the low to the high tide them it will take 12.50 hours to complete a full cycle.
The period:   b = 2π/12.5 ;
c = 9.25; d = 12 + 20 = 32;
Answer:
f ( x ) = - 20 cos ( 2π/12.5 ·( x - 9.25 ) ) + 32 =
= - 20 cos ( 0.5024 ( x - 9.25 ) ) +32

How do you solve this equation?<br>step by step...<br>-9(x-9)=252
katovenus [111]
Well think about it this way -9 times what equals 252 you already know x is going to be a negative number because the outcome is positive so try doing the problem backwards 252/-9=-28 so x=-28

Calculate the annual interest for a $10,000 Treasury bond with a current yield of 3% that is quoted at 106 points.
Sergio [31]

Answer:

$318

Step-by-step explanation:

The treasury bond is $10,000

The current yield is 3%

= 3/100

=0.03

It is quoted at 106 points

The first step is to calculate the price of the bond

Price of the bond= $10,000×106/100

= $10,000×1.06

= $10,600

Therefore the annual interest can be calculated as follows

Annual interest= $10,600×0.03

= $318

Hence the annual interest is $318

If a tax percentage is 8% how much money would something $30 be?
lora16 [44]
<span>If the base rate of Taxation percentage is only 8%, and the item in question that is being taxed costs $30, then the answer of how much the tax will cost ends up being 8% of 30. 8% of 30 is 2.4 so 8% of $30 is $2.40. So the cost of the $30 item, including tax, is $32.40.</span>
