The water level varies from 12 inches at low tide to 52 inches at high tide. Low tide occurs at 9:15 a.m. and high tide occurs a

t 3:30 p.m. What is a cosine function that models the variation in inches above and below the water level as a function of time in hours since 9:15 a.m.?

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

Given that f(x) = x2 + 2x + 3 and g(x) = quantity of x plus four, over three , solve for f(g(x)) when x = 2.
Sidana [21]
f(x)=x^2+2x+3
g(x)=\frac{x+4}{3}
f(g(x))=(\frac{x+4}{3})^2+2(\frac{x+4}{3})+3
f(g(x))=\frac{x^2+8x+16}{9}+\frac{2x+8}{3}+3
f(g(2))=\frac{2^2+8(2)+16}{9}+\frac{2(2)+8}{3}+3
f(g(2))+\frac{4+16+16}{9}+\frac{4+8}{3}+3
f(g(2))=\frac{36}{9}+\frac{12}{3}+3
f(g(2))=4+4+3
f(g(2)=11

Check:
g(2)=(2+4)/3=2
f(2)=2^2+2(2)+3=4+4+3=11  Checks.

Find X please.......
nikdorinn [45]
So Angle 5 = 1x - 7 and angle 2 = -2x + 18. You can work out that angle 1 is the same as angle 5 because corresponding angles are equal. Then you know that angle 1 + angle 2 = 180 because angles on a straight line add to 180. So therefore 1x - 7 -2x + 18 = 180 so -1x + 11 = 180 so -x = 169 so x = -169. Hope this helps :)
