The bottom answer is correct. I had some trouble with this so I had to find x and y in separate parts.
TO FIND X
notice that the top triangle and bottom triangles are similar, meaning if you multiple all three sides of one by a specific number, it becomes the same size as the bottom triangle.
17 x n = 8, therefore n=8/17
8 x n = X, therefore X=64/17
For some reason, this does not give a correct value for Y, so I had to use trig
TO FIND Y
Notice that the angle DAB is the same as DBC (lets call this angle Ø)
Using trig rule, we know that the cos of an angle is equal to the adjacent side divided by the hypotenuses.
We can now form some equations:
cosØ = 15/17 (from the top triangle)
cosØ = 8/Y (from bottom triangle)
Now we know that Y=(8x17)/15 = 136/15
X=64/15 Y=136/15

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B) -2
Step-by-step explanation:
I got the slope by using two points on the line (0,7) and (4,-1)
Slope=y2-y1/x2-x1
(7--1)/(0-4)
=
8/-4
I then simplified 8/-4 to -2
You could also solve by finding the rise over run for two points on the line.
The rise is 2 and the run is -1, making it 2/-1 or -2
The given function is

The general form of the cosine function is

a is the amplitude
2pi/b is the period
c is the phase shift
d is the vertical shift
By comparing the two functions
a = 4
b = pi
c = 0
d = 1
Then its period is

The equation of the midline is

Since the maximum is at the greatest value of cos, which is 1, then

Since the minimum is at the smallest value of cos, which is -1, then

Then substitute them in the equation of the midline

The answers are:
Period = 2
Equation of the midline is y = 1
Maximum = 5
Minimum = -3
