Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In this graph, we have the coordinate point (). Without translations, cos(0) = 0, which means that the graph is shifted to the right by
. We also know that the graph is shifted down by 1 because we have the point
(), but accounting for the right shift, this point should really by (
). cos(
) = -1, but on the graph it is -2, meaning that it is shifted down by 1.
Therefore, accounting for the right shift by and the shift down by 1, our equation is
.
Answer:
Ivy is 6 years old and Rose is 12 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, two variables are necessary since we have two unknown variables: Ivy's age and Rose's age.
Ivy's age will be
and Rose's age will be
"Ivy is half as old as her sister":
this will be our <u>fist equation.</u>
"In six years, Ivy will be two-thirds as old as Rose"
in six years Ivy will have years, and Rose will have
years, so for this sentence we have the equation:
this will be our <u>second equation.</u>
Substituting the value of x from the first equation into the second, and solving for y(Rose):
Rose is 12 years old.
and Ivy (using the fist equation):
Ivy is 6 years old.
