9  1/3 days

Step-by-step explanation:

  • If the total change in the size of the pencil is -7/9 millimeters. Then the actual change itself is 7/9 which is a positive value.
  • If each day the pencil changes by 1/12 millimeters, how many 1/12 millimeters are there in 7/9 millimeters. This is a division query;

7/9  ÷ 1/12 = 7/9 * 12/1 = 28/3

= 9 & 1/3 days

Answer:  5 cos x

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

y = sin x     is       y = cos x        shifted to the right π/2 units.

y = 5 sin (x + π/2)     is a shift to the left π/2 units (which results in cos x) and    .                                 an amplitude of 5.

--> y = 5 cos x
