For the function y=-1+6 cos(2pi/7(x-5)) what is the minimum value?

Ad libitum [116K]

Usually one will differentiate the function to find the minimum/maximum point, but in this case differentiating yields:
$\frac{2\pi}{7(x-5)^{2}}\sin{\frac{2\pi}{7(x-5)}}}$
which contains multiple solution if one tries to solve for x when the differentiated form is 0.

I would, though, venture a guess that the minimum value would be (approaching) 5, since the function would be undefined in the vicinity.

If, however, the function is
$-1+\cos{\frac{2\pi}{7}(x-5)}}$
Then differentiating and equating to 0 yields:
$\sin{\frac{2\pi}{7}(x-5)}}=0$
which gives:
$x=5$ or $8.5$

We reject x=5 as it is when it ix the maximum and thus,
$x=8.5\pm7n$ , for $n=0,\pm 1,\pm 2, ...$
