Answer:
29/35
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to make a cos graph that starts its minimum and of -2, has an amplitude of 10, a period of 10 and a maximum of 18.
I decided to use a cos graph since cos graphs start at their minimum or maximum unlike a sine graph that starts halfway between the minimum and maximum. You also know the amplitude has to be 10 since 18+2=20 and 20/2=10. We were also told that the water wheel completels a rotation every 10 minutes which means the period is 10 minutes.
lets start of with a regular cos(x) graph. This starts on its maximum instead of minimum so we have to multiply it by -1 to get -cos(x) which does start on its minimum.
-cos(x) has an amplitude of 1 instead of 10, to fix that we multiply it by 10 to get -10cos(x) which has an amplitude of 10.
-10cos(x) has a period of 2π instead of 10, to fix this we multiply the x by 2π/10 to get -10cos((π/5)x) which now has a period of 10.
-10cos((π/5)x) has a minimum of -10 and maximum of 10 instead of a minimum of -2 and maximum of 18, to fix this we add 8 to -10cos((π/5)x) to get -10cos((π/5)x)+8 which does have a minimum of -2 and maximum of 18.
Therefore the answer is y=-10cos((π/5)x)+8. x being time in minutes and and y being the height in feet.
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the steps for equation solving for the value of x,
x/3-7 = 11
now 7 goes to the other side of equation by changing the sign from - to +,
x/3 = 11 + 7
x/3 = 18
now when we multiply both sides of equation with 3 or 3 goes to the other side of equation and multiply with 18 leaving x alone here for finding the value of x,
and we get, x = 54
at the end of equation we get x = 54, if the equation was in the form 3x - 7 = 11, then we will get x = 6
