Here we can change the variables to real numbers, just to make things easier for us. For the sake of calculation, let’s say that x=10, y=6, and z=1.
So, y years from now, Yann will be x years old. If we plug in our randomly chosen numbers, we get that Yann will be 10 years old 6 years from now. This means that today, he would be x-y years old, or 10-6, so 4 years old today.
Next we ask how old he was z years ago, or in this case, 1 year ago. We know that if you’re 4 years old now, you were 3 years old last year. In other words, you’re 4-1 years old, or x-y-z years old.
Your answer is x-y-z.
To get the function y = <span>-2+5sin(pi/12(x-2)), the maximum value can be determined by differentiating the function and equating it to zero. The value of x will give the maximum value of the function.
dy/dx = 5 cos (pi/12 (x-2)) (pi/12)
dy/dx = 5 pi/12 cos(pi/12 (x-2))
Equate to zero</span>:
<span>5 pi/12 cos(pi/12 (x-2)) =0
pi/12 (x-2) = 3pi/2
x = 8
Substituting,
y= -2 + 5sin( pi/12 (8-2)
y = -1.86

3,3,2 these are the primes of 18
