A. Find the amplitude.
Feliz [49]

Answers:

  • a) Amplitude = 2
  • b) Period = pi
  • c) Vertical shift = -2, which means it has been shifted down 2 units.
  • d) Horizontal shift = 3pi/8, this shifting is to the right.
  • e) There is <u>  one  </u> cycle between 0 and 2pi.
  • f) The equation of the graph is y = 2*sin(2(x-3pi/8))-2

========================================================

Explanations:

Part (a)

The highest point is when y = 0 and the lowest point is when y = -4. The vertical distance between the peak and valley is 4 units, which cuts in half to 2. This is the amplitude. It's the vertical distance from the center to either the peak or valley.

Note: Amplitude is always positive as it measures a distance.

---------------------

Part (b)

For x > 0, the first valley or lowest point occurs between 0 and pi/4. It appears to be the midpoint of the two values. So that would be (0+pi/4)/2 = pi/8.

The next valley occurs between pi and 5pi/4. Compute the midpoint to get (pi+5pi/4)/2 = (4pi/4+5pi/4)/2 = (9pi/4)/2 = 9pi/8

So we have the graph go from one valley x = pi/8 to the next valley over x = 9pi/8. This is a distance of pi units because 9pi/8-pi/8 = 8pi/8 = pi

The graph repeats itself every pi units, so the period is pi.

---------------------

Part (c)

The midline is normally through y = 0, aka the x axis. However, the graph shows the midline is through y = -2. This means the graph has been shifted down 2 units.

---------------------

Part (d)

This will depend on whether you use sine or cosine. This is entirely because cosine is a phase-shifted version of sine, and vice versa. I'll go with sine.

The parent sine function y = sin(x) goes through the origin (0,0)

However, as part (c) mentioned, we shifted the graph 2 units down. So we have y = sin(x)-2. But plugging x = 0 into this leads to the point (0,-2)

This doesn't match what the graph says. The graph shows the point (3pi/8, -2) on the red curve. The x coordinate 3pi/8 is the midpoint of pi/4 and pi/2

This must mean we need to shift the sine graph 3pi/8 units to the right.

---------------------

Part (e)

Start at the lowest point when x = pi/8. If you start the cycle here, then it ends when x = 9pi/8. See part (b).

So far we've completed one cycle. If we start at x = 9pi/8, then the next valley or lowest point is slightly beyond or to the right of x = 2pi. This means we run out of room and we haven't completed a full cycle.

Overall, one full cycle is between 0 and 2pi.

---------------------

Part (f)

Again I'm going to use sine instead of cosine. Refer back to part (d).

The general sine curve equation is

y = A*sin(B(x-C))+D

where

  • |A| = amplitude
  • B handles the period, specifically T = 2pi/B where T is the period. We can solve for B to get B = 2pi/T
  • C = horizontal phase shift
  • D = vertical shift, and ties together with the midline equation

In this case, we found that

  • |A| = 2
  • T = pi leads to B = 2pi/T = 2pi/pi = 2
  • C = 3pi/8
  • D = -2

So,

y = A*sin(B(x-C))+D

will update to

y = 2*sin(2(x-3pi/8))-2

which is one way to express the equation of the red curve. Optionally you can distribute the 2 through to (x-3pi/8).

Suppose a batch of metal shafts produced in a manufacturing company have a standard deviation of 1.5 and a mean diameter of 205
lawyer [7]

Answer:

the probability is 0.0750

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the probability is shown below;

The mean of x is

= 1.5 ÷ √79

= 0.1688

Now the probability is

= P(Z < -0.3 ÷ 0.1688) + P(\bar{x} > 0.3 ÷ 0.1688)

= P(Z < -1.78) + P(Z > 1.78)

= P(Z < -1.78) + 1 - P(Z < 1.78

= 0.0375 + 1 - 0.9625

= 0.0750

hence, the probability is 0.0750

Y is directly proportional to x.
Anna35 [415]

Answer: Our required equation would be

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

y=30, when x = 6.

As there is direct proportion between x and y.

so, it becomes,

So, the equation connecting y and x would be

When we put the value of k, we get that

Hence, our required equation would be y=5x
