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, ...

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points given in the table. The slope is 5.

Use one of the given points to find the y-intercept. Substitute values for x, y, and m into the equation y = mx + b and solve for b. The y-intercept is 1.

Write the formula as a function of n in slope-intercept form. The function is

f(n) = 5n+1  for n in the set of natural numbers.

Which statement is true about this argument? premises: if an angle measure is greater than 90°, then the angle is an obtuse angl
vazorg [7]
Answer: option d. the argument is valid by the law of detachment.

The law of detachment consists in make a conlcusion in this way:

Premise 1) a => b
Premise 2) a is true

Conclusion: Then, b is true

Note: the order of the premises 1 and 2 does not modifiy the argument.

IN this case:

Premise 1) angle > 90 => obtuse

Premise 2) angle = 102 [i.e. it is true that angle > 90]]

Conclusion: it is true that angle is obtuse
