Consider the function y = -2-3cos (x+pi). What effect does the -2 have on the basic graph

ANSWER

-2 shift the graph of the basic function down by 2 units.

EXPLANATION

The given cosine function is:

y =  - 2 - 3 \cos(x + \pi)

This equation can be rewritten as:

y =  - 3 \cos(x + \pi)  +  - 2

We compare this to

y = a \cos(bx + c)  + d

The effect d has on the graph is that, it shifts the graph up by d units.

If d is negative the graph shifts down by d units.

Since d=-2, the graph will shift down by 2 units.

2x^2+5x+3/x^2-3x-4 divided by 4x^2+2x-6/x^2-8x+16
Masja [62]

Answer: \frac{x-4}{2x-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2x^2+5x+3}{x^2-3x-4} divided by \frac{4x^2+2x-6}{x^2-8x+16} is the same thing as multiplying \frac{2x^2+5x+3}{x^2-3x-4} by \frac{x^2-8x+16}{4x^2+2x-6}.

The equation we get is:

\frac{2x^2+5x+3}{x^2-3x-4}*\frac{x^2-8x+16}{4x^2+2x-6}

With this equation, we can factor each equation:

\frac{(x+1)(2x+3)}{(x+1)(x-4)} *\frac{(x-4)(x-4)}{2(x-1)(2x+3)}

We can cancel out like terms since they would be dividing each other:

\frac{x-4}{2x-2}

A ship leaves port and travels due west for 30 knots, then changes course to S 30° W and travels 50 more knots. Find the bearing
leva [86]

Answer:

  232°

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to find the desired direction. Perhaps the most straightforward is to add up the coordinates of the travel vectors.

  30∠270° +50∠210° = 30(cos(270°), sin(270°)) +50(cos(210°), sin(210°))

  = (0, -30) +(-43.301, -25) = (-43.301, -55)

Then the angle from port is ...

  arctan(-55/-43.301) ≈ 231.79° . . . . . . . 3rd quadrant angle

The bearing of the ship from port is about 232°.

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

The term "knot" is conventionally used to indicate a measure of speed (nautical mile per hour), not distance. It is derived from the use of a knotted rope to estimate speed. Knots on the rope were typically 47 ft 3 inches apart. As a measure of distance 30 knots is about 1417.5 feet.
