You expect a scarcity of wheat to result in an increase in the price of bread.
_____
In the real world, politics and international competition come into play, likely resulting in more imported wheat—perhaps even at a lower price than domestic wheat. If it doesn't actually fall, the price of bread may very well stay the same as companies seek to preserve or enhance their profit.
To find the displacement between t=0 and t=1, we want to plug 0 & 1 into the equations, then find the different in the answers.
<u>When t = 0:</u>
x = 4 cos(π(0)+π/4) → π · 0 = 0, so therefore:
x = 4 cos (π/4) → cos (π/4) = √2/2
x = 4 (√2/2)
x = 4√2/2 → 4 divided by 2 = 2, so we can simplify this to
x = 2√2
<u>When t = 1:</u>
x = 4 cos(π(1)+π/4) → π · 1 = π, so therefore:
x = 4 cos (π + π/4) → π + π/4 = 5π/4, so therefore
x = 4 cos (5π/4) → cosine of 5π/4 = -√2/2
x = 4 · -√2/2
x = -4√2/2 → -4 divided by 2 = -2, so we can simplify this to
x = -2√2
<u>Answer</u>: Then, we find the difference between x(0) and x(1), which is x(1)-x(0) =
-√2/2 - √2/2 = <u>-√2</u>
