In the standard form of the equation
![\\ \ f(t)=Acos[b(t\pm c)]+k\\ \\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5C%5C%20%5C%20f%28t%29%3DAcos%5Bb%28t%5Cpm%20c%29%5D%2Bk%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20)
The middle line =k
For our given problem
f(t) = 40cos (80t + 20)
On comparison we get k=0
Hence middle line=0
Answer:
(-4, -5)
Step-by-step explanation:
When you see the 'line' is increasing starting from 0 to 2 hours, this indicates that the person on the graph is riding up a hill. This is known as positive acceleration or constant positive acceleration.
Where you see the 'line' stays the same 2 to 5 hours, this can indicate that the bike rider is doing one or two things. One thing the biker could be doing is taking a rest, and the other could be that the biker is riding at a leveled ground. This could be known as having constant velocity or zero acceleration.
Finally, where the 'line' is decreasing from 5 to 6 hours, this can indicate that biker is riding, possibly, down a hill. This is known as negative acceleration.
And of course, when the 'line' is going up again from 6 to 7 hours, this indicates that the biker is riding up a hill or increasing his speed. This is known as positive acceleration or constant positive acceleration.
