Answer:

y=2\text{cos}((\frac{2\pi}{3})t)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that an object oscillates 4 feet from its minimum height to its maximum height. The object is back at the maximum height every 3 seconds. We are asked to find the cosine function that can be used to model the height of the object.

We know that standard form of cosine function is y = A\cdot \text{cos}(Bt-C)+D, where,

|A| = Amplitude,

Period = \frac{2\pi}{|B|},

C = Phase shift,

D = Vertical shift.

Since distance between maximum and minimum is 4, therefore, amplitude will be half of it, that is, A = 2.

Since objects gets back to its maximum value in every 3 seconds, therefore, period of the function is 3 seconds. We know that period is given by \frac{2\pi}{|B|}, therefore, we can write \frac{2\pi}{|B|}=3, therefore, B = \frac{2\pi}{3}.

We haven't been given any information about phase and mid-line, we can assume the values of C and D to be zero .

Therefore, our function required function would be y=2\text{cos}((\frac{2\pi}{3})t).

It has long been reported that human body temperature follows a normal distribution with a mean of 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Ther
Kay [80]

Solution :

The normal body temperature of any human body is considered to be 98.6$^\circ \ F$. But there is a constant debate about the body temperature of a long held standard to the body temperature.

It is given that :

Null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis :

$H_0 : \mu = 98.6$

And $H_A : \mu > 98.6$

n is given as = 180

Test statistics = 3.64

Prove = 0.018 < α = 0.05 (let reject null hypothesis for α = 0.05 )

Therefore, their results are statistically significant and the result is unlikely due to chance alone.

Tell me the y-intercept of the line: 2x - 3y = 9
butalik [34]

Answer:

y-intercept: (0,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Y-intercepts mean that the x-value has to be equal to 0. When plugging in 0 for the x-value, we receive:

  • 2(0)-3y=9\\0-3y=9\\-3y=9\\y=\frac{9}{-3} \\y=-3

  • Therefore, the point is (0,-3).

Answer:

Look bucko this story will help u, make sure to read it all!

Step-by-step explanation:

She tried to explain that love wasn't like pie. There wasn't a set number of slices to be given out. There wasn't less to be given to one person if you wanted to give more to another. That after a set amount was given out it would all disappear. She tried to explain this, but it fell on deaf ears.

Cake or pie? I can tell a lot about you by which one you pick. It may seem silly, but cake people and pie people are really different. I know which one I hope you are, but that's not for me to decide. So, what is it? Cake or pie?

It was a concerning development that he couldn't get out of his mind. He'd had many friends throughout his early years and had fond memories of playing with them, but he couldn't understand how it had all stopped. There was some point as he grew up that he played with each of his friends for the very last time, and he had no idea that it would be the last.

She nervously peered over the edge. She understood in her mind that the view was supposed to be beautiful, but all she felt was fear. There had always been something about heights that disturbed her, and now she could feel the full force of this unease. She reluctantly crept a little closer with the encouragement of her friends as the fear continued to build. She couldn't help but feel that something horrible was about to happen.

I'm heading back to Colorado tomorrow after being down in Santa Barbara over the weekend for the festival there. I will be making October plans once there and will try to arrange so I'm back here for the birthday if possible. I'll let you know as soon as I know the doctor's appointment schedule and my flight plans.

She reached her goal, exhausted. Even more chilling to her was that the euphoria that she thought she'd feel upon reaching it wasn't there. Something wasn't right. Was this the only feeling she'd have for over five years of hard work?

At that moment he had a thought that he'd never imagine he'd consider. "I could just cheat," he thought, "and that would solve the problem." He tried to move on from the thought but it was persistent. It didn't want to go away and, if he was honest with himself, he didn't want it to.

You can decide what you want to do in life, but I suggest doing something that creates. Something that leaves a tangible thing once you're done. That way even after you're gone, you will still live on in the things you created.

He looked at the sand. Picking up a handful, he wondered how many grains were in his hand. Hundreds of thousands? "Not enough," the said under his breath. I need more.

There once lived an old man and an old woman who were peasants and had to work hard to earn their daily bread. The old man used to go to fix fences and do other odd jobs for the farmers around, and while he was gone the old woman, his wife, did the work of the house and worked in their own little plot of land.

If AB=BC,AB=4=4x-2,andBC=3x+3,fine the length of AB
laila [671]

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I'm assuming AB=4=4x-2 was a typo and it's supposed to be AB = 4x - 2

AB=BC

AB = 4x - 2 BC = 3x + 3

4x - 2 = 3x + 3

Solve for x Add 2 to each side

4x - 2 = 3x + 3

4x - 2 + 2 = 3x + 3 + 2

4x = 3x + 5 Subtract 3x from each side.

4x - 3x = 3x- 3x + 5

4x - 3x = 5

x = 5

Now plug back in to the original equations

AB = 4x - 2                  BC = 3x + 3

AB = 4 (5) - 2               BC = 3(5) + 3

AB = 20 - 2                  BC = 15 + 3

AB = 18                        BC = 18

So AB is 18
