The daily average temperature in Santiago, Chile, varies over time in a periodic way that can be modeled approximately by a trig

onometric function.
Assume the length of the year (which is the period of change) is exactly 365days long. The hottest day of the year, on average, is January 777, when the average temperature is about 29 degrees C.

The average temperature at the coolest day of the year is about 14 degrees C.

Find the formula of the trigonometric function that models the daily average temperature T in Santiago t days into the year. (t = 1 on January 1) Define the function using radians.

What is the average temperature in Santiago on January 31? Round your answer, if necessary, to two decimal places.

Answer:

a) the trigonometric function is;

y = 7.5 sin ( \frac{2 \pi}{365}t + \frac{337 \pi}{730})+ 21.5

b) y = 28.36^0 \ C    ( to two decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

This data can be represented by the sinusoidal function of the form :

\mathbf{y = A sin (Bt -C)+D}

where A = amplitude and which can be determined via the formula:

A = \dfrac{largest \ temperature -  lowest \ temperature}{2}

A = \dfrac{29-14}{2}

A = \dfrac{15}{2}

A = 7.5° C

where B = the frequency;

Since the data covers a period of 3 days ; then \dfrac{2 \pi}{B } =365

B = \dfrac{2 \pi}{365}   ( where 365 is the time period )

The vertical shift is found by the equation D;

D =  \frac{largest \ temperature + lowest \ temperature}{2}

D = \frac{29+14}{2}

D = 21.5

Replacing the values of A ; B and D into the above sinusoidal function; we have :

y = 7.5 sin (\frac{2 \pi}{365}t -C) + 21.5

From the question; when it is 7th of the year ( i.e January 7);

t =  7 and the temperature (y) = 29° C

replacing that too into the above equation; we have:

29= 7.5 sin (\frac{2 \pi}{365}*7 -C) + 21.5

29= 7.5 sin (\frac{14 \pi}{365} -C) + 21.5

\frac{29-21.5}{7.5}=  sin (\frac{14 \pi}{365} -C)

1=  sin (\frac{14 \pi}{365} -C)

sin^{-1}(1)=   (\frac{14 \pi}{365} -C)

\frac{\pi}{2}=   (\frac{14 \pi}{365} -C)

C=   (\frac{14 \pi}{365} -\frac{\pi}{2})

C=   (\frac{28 \pi- 365 \pi}{730} )

C=  \frac{-337 \pi}{730}

Thus; the trigonometric function is;

y = 7.5 sin ( \frac{2 \pi}{365}t + \frac{337 \pi}{730})+ 21.5

Similarly; to determine the temperature o Jan 31; i.e when t= 31 ; we have :

y = 7.5 sin ( \frac{2 \pi}{365}*31+ \frac{337 \pi}{730})+ 21.5

y = 7.5 sin ( \frac{62 \pi}{365}+ \frac{337 \pi}{730})+ 21.5

y = 7.5 sin ( \frac{124 \pi+ 337 \pi }{730})+ 21.5

y = 7.5 sin ( \frac{461 \pi }{730})+ 21.5

y = 7.5 *( 0.915)+ 21.5

y = 6.8689+ 21.5

y = 28.36^0 \ C    ( to two decimal places)

Find the surface area of a cylinder with a base radius of 2 yd and a height of 3 yd.
kherson [118]

Answer:

20 π

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cylinder is made up of 2 circles and its side.

To find the circles' areas, use the area formula for a circle: A = πr^2.

Since our radius is 2 yd, we can substitute r = 2 into this formula.

A = π2^2 = 4π

Now remember, this is only the area of once circle. Multiply 4π by 2 to get the area of both circles: 8π.

Now we need to find the surface area of the side.

If we flatten it out, we can see that the side is actually a curled up rectangle.

The length is the circumference of the circle and the width is the height of the cylinder.

To find the circumference, use the circumference formula for a circle: C = 2πr.

Substitute r = 2 into the formula.

C = 2π2 = 4π

Now that we know that the length is 4π, we can multiply the length by the width to find the area of the cylinder's side.

l = 4π

w = 3

A = lw = 4π * 3 = 12π

Finally, we can add the areas of the circles and the side to get the total surface area.

8π + 12π  = 20π

And that is your answer!
