Answer:

<em>12/15 acres of land </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total measure of land = 2 2/5acres

Total brothers = 3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = Total measure of land/Total brother

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = (2 2/5)/3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 2 2/5 ÷ 3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 12/5 ÷ 3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 12/5 * 1/3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 12/15

<em>Hence each brother will receive 12/15 acres of land </em>

You have to know that the graph of the arctangent function is a flat S-shaped curve that goes through (0, 0) and has asymptotes at ±π/2. The factor of 2 that multiplies it here expands it vertically so the asymptotes are at ±π. The +3 added to the x causes it to be shifted to the left by 3 units.
