The amplitude is |-3| = 3.

The period, T, is obtained from

(2*pi)/T = 2
T = pi

From the calculator, the first positive zero is approximately x = 0.85

Algebraically:
The cos function takes a minimum of -1 and a maximum value of +1.
Therefore y can be at most -3 or +3.
This makes the amplitude = 3.

The general expression for the sinusoidal function is
y = Acos((2*pi)/T + b) + k

Therefore, find T from the equation
(2*pi)/T = 2   => T = pi.

A bag contains 4 red balls, 2 green balls, 3 yellow balls, and 5 blue balls. Find each probability for randomly removing balls w
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

\frac{15}{4802}, \frac{15}{9604}, \frac{9}{2401}, \frac{9}{4802}

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag has a total of (4+2+3+5) = 14 balls. Set up the proportions:

Red: \frac{4}{14}

green: \frac{2}{14}

yellow: \frac{3}{14}

blue: \frac{5}{14}

Now solve!

Removing 1 yellow, 1 red, 1 green, and 1 blue = \frac{3}{14} \cdot \frac{4}{14}  \cdot \frac{2}{14}  \cdot \frac{5}{14} =\frac{15}{4802}

Removing 1 blue, 1 green, 1 green, and 1 yellow = \frac{5}{14} \cdot \frac{2}{14}  \cdot \frac{2}{14}  \cdot \frac{3}{14} =\frac{15}{9604}

Removing 1 red, 1 red, 1 yellow, and 1 yellow = \frac{4}{14} \cdot \frac{4}{14}  \cdot \frac{3}{14}  \cdot \frac{3}{14} =\frac{9}{2401}

Removing 1 green, 1 yellow, 1 yellow, and 1 red = \frac{2}{14} \cdot \frac{3}{14}  \cdot \frac{3}{14}  \cdot \frac{4}{14} =\frac{9}{4802}
