4, 7 and 9 are mutually coprime, so you can use the Chinese remainder theorem.

Start with

x=7\cdot9+4\cdot2\cdot9+4\cdot7\cdot5

Taken mod 4, the last two terms vanish and we're left with

x\equiv63\equiv64-1\equiv-1\equiv3\pmod4

We have 3^2\equiv9\equiv1\pmod4, so we can multiply the first term by 3 to guarantee that we end up with 1 mod 4.

x=7\cdot9\cdot3+4\cdot2\cdot9+4\cdot7\cdot5

Taken mod 7, the first and last terms vanish and we're left with

x\equiv72\equiv2\pmod7

which is what we want, so no adjustments needed here.

x=7\cdot9\cdot3+4\cdot2\cdot9+4\cdot7\cdot5

Taken mod 9, the first two terms vanish and we're left with

x\equiv140\equiv5\pmod9

so we don't need to make any adjustments here, and we end up with x=401.

By the Chinese remainder theorem, we find that any x such that

x\equiv401\pmod{4\cdot7\cdot9}\implies x\equiv149\pmod{252}

is a solution to this system, i.e. x=149+252n for any integer n, the smallest and positive of which is 149.

Answer:

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sinusoidal equation is y = 2 \cdot sin \left(\dfrac{\pi}{2} \cdot x + 3 \right)

The general form of the sin function is presented as follows;

y = A·sin(B·(x - C)) + D

Where;

A = The amplitude

The period, T = 2·π/B

The frequency, f = B/2·π

C = The horizontal shift

D = The vertical shift

By comparison with the given sine function, we have;

The amplitude, A = 2

The frequency, f = B/2·π = π/2/(2·π) = 1/4

The frequency, f = 1/4 Hz

C = The horizontal shift = 3/(π/2) = 6/π

The vertical shift, D = 0

Given that the mid line of the parent function, sin(x), is the line y = 0, and that the vertical shift is 0, the midline of the function, y = 2 \cdot sin \left(\dfrac{\pi}{2} \cdot x + 3 \right), is therefore, the line;

y = 0.
