If you were to graph the sine and cosine functions on the same set of axes, you'd see that they are 90 degrees, or pi/2 radians, out of sync with one another. cos 0 is 1, whereas sin 0 is 0; sin x does not reach the value 1 until your angle reaches 90 degrees, or pi/2 radians.
Please do some experimentation here. You want to express sin (300t) as a cosine, that is, as cos (300t + [some angle]), where [some angle] is called a "phase shift."
Start with the basic y=sin x. Its graph is usually begun at (0,0). Try simplifying and graphing cos (x-pi/2). Does this produce the same y=sin x, with the same graph? Do you remember that
cos (x-pi/2) = cos x cos pi/2 + sin x sin pi/2?
It happens that cos pi/2 = 0 and that sin pi/2 = 1. Thus,
cos (x-pi/2) = sin x (1) = sin x. So, we have succeeded in obtaining sin x from cos (x-pi/2).
Now, what about obtaining sin 300t from the cosine function?
First: recognize that the standard form of the cosine function with a phase shift is y = a cos (bx + c). What is the period?
Answer: The period is always 2pi/b. So, in the case, the period is 2pi/300, or pi/150.
What is the phase shift?
Answer: the period is always -c/b. So, in this case, the period is -c/b, or
-pi/2 over 300. This simplifies to -pi/150.
Try this: Simplify cos (300t -pi/150) If the end result is sin 300t, you'll know you have this right. If the end result is not sin 300t, experiment with that phase shift.
I like to start with changing fractions to decimals. It seems easier that way.
5/8 = 0.625 cups
Now divide 4 by 0.625
4 / 0.625 = 6.4
Noor can offer 6 cups with an extra 2/5 of a cup left. He can offer the 2/5 of a cup to a friend, so he can offer 7 friends some hot chocolate!
I think it is 9. But I am not sure if I am correct on it though.
Answer:
It should be 384^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer=15:39
Step1(find the number of right handed batters)
Left-handed batters=45
5 45
__=___
8 x
Cross multiply
5x=360
divide both sides by 5
x=72
Right-handed batters=72
Step 2 (find the number of total batters)
total batters=45+72=117
Step3 (find the ratio of left handed batters to total batters)
Left-handed batters to total batters= 45/117
45/117 can be shortened to 15/39
Answer=15:39
