Over a 24-hour period, the tide in a harbor can be modeled by one period of a sinusoidal function. The tide measures 4.35 ft at

midnight, rises to a high of 8.3 ft, falls to a low of 0.4 ft, and then rises to 4.35 ft by the next midnight.
What is the equation for the sine function f(x), where x represents time in hours since the beginning of the 24-hour period, that models the situation?

f(x)=

Answer:

  f(x) = 4.35 +3.95·sin(πx/12)

Step-by-step explanation:

For problems of this sort, a sine function is used that is of the form ...

  f(x) = A + Bsin(2πx/P)

where A is the average or middle value of the oscillation, B is the one-sided amplitude, P is the period in the same units as x.

It is rare that a tide function has a period (P) of 24 hours, but we'll use that value since the problem statement requires it. The value of A is the middle value of the oscillation, 4.35 ft in this problem. The value of B is the amplitude, given as 8.3 ft -4.35 ft = 3.95 ft. Putting these values into the form gives ...

  f(x) = 4.35 + 3.95·sin(2πx/24)

The argument of the sine function can be simplified to πx/12, as in the Answer, above.

Find the domain of the function f(x)=<img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%7Bx%5E3-16x%7D" id="TexFormula1" title="\sqrt{x^3
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{x^3-16x}

We know that the domain of the function is the set of input or arguments for which the function is real and defined.  

In other words,  

  • Domain refers to all the possible sets of input values on the x-axis.

Now, determine non-negative values for radicals so that we can sort out the domain values for which the function can be defined.

x^3-16x\ge 0

as x³ - 16x ≥ 0

\left(x+4\right)\left(x-4\right)\ge \:0

Thus, identifying the intervals:

-4\le \:x\le \:0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x\ge \:4

Thus,

The domain of the function f(x) is:

x\left(x+4\right)\left(x-4\right)\ge \:0\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:-4\le \:x\le \:0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x\ge \:4\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left[-4,\:0\right]\cup \:[4,\:\infty \:)\end{bmatrix}

And the Least Value of the domain is -4.

What is 3x+70=8x-20 show work
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

x= 18

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+70=8x-20

Isolate x on left side

3x+70=8x-20

-8x       -8x

-5x +70 = -20

Isolate whole numbers on right side

-5x +70 = -20

      -70      -70

-5x = -90

Isolate x by dividing both sides by -5

-5x = -90

/-5

x= 18

What is the value of x
amm1812

Answer:

x=123

Step-by-step explanation:

x is across from the angle that measures 123 degrees. Therefore, they are vertical angles, and are congruent.

x=123

Additionally, 57 and x are on a straight line. This means they are supplementary and add to 180 degrees

57*x=180

Subtract 57 from both sides to get x by itself.

x=123
