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.

Write an equation of the line parallel to 3x + 5 = 2y that has a y-intercept of -1
denpristay [2]

Answer:

3x - 2 = 2y

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 3x + 5 = 2y into this form by dividing all terms by 2

\frac{3}{2} x + \frac{5}{2} = y ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{3}{2}

Parallel lines have equal slopes and c = - 1, thus

y = \frac{3}{2} x - 1 ← in slope- intercept form

Multiply through by 2

2y = 3x - 2 ← equation of line

A sprinter travels a distance of 100 m in a time of 11.21 seconds.
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

distance travelled by sprinter = 100 m

Time taken = 11.21sec

∵speed = distance/time taken

= 100/9.83

= 10.17 m/s

Now we know, 1 km/h = 1000/3600 m/s

so, 1 m/s = 3600/1000 km/h = 18/5 km/h

∴ 10.17 m/s = 10.17 × 18/5 = 10.17 × 18/5 = 36.612 km/h

Hence, average speed = 36.612 km/h
