8x - 6 - 12x^2 + 9x

2(4x-3)-3x(3x-3)

=> (2-3x)(3x-3)

=> 3(x-1)(2-3x)

Order from highest power to lowest
-12x^2+9x+8x-6
group
(-12x^2+9x)+(8x-6)
factor
(-3x)(4x-3)+(2)(4x-3)
undistribute
(-3x+2)(4x-3)

(4x-3)(2-3x)

What is the amplitude of the cosine function corresponding to the secant function graphed below ? a. -2 b. -1 c. 2 d. 3

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, we obtain the trigonometric function as:

$y=2 \sec x+1$

The corresponding cosine function have equation.

$y=2\cos x+ 1$

This function is of the form: $y=a\cos bx+c$

where $|a|$ is the amplitude.

Therefore the amplitude is |2|=2
