Answer:

The intervals in which the population is less than 20,000 include

(0 ≤ t < 0.74) and (11.26 < t ≤ 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

P(t) = 82.5 - 67.5 cos [(π/6)t]

where

P = population in thousands.

t = time in months.

During a year, in what intervals is the population less than 20,000?

That is, during (0 ≤ t ≤ 12), when is (P < 20)

82.5 - 67.5 cos [(π/6)t] < 20

- 67.5 cos [(π/6)t] < 20 - 82.5

-67.5 cos [(π/6)t] < -62.5

Dividing both sides by (-67.5) changes the inequality sign

cos [(π/6)t] > (62.5/67.5)

Cos [(π/6)t] > 0.9259

Note: cos 22.2° = 0.9259 = cos (0.1233π) or cos 337.8° = cos (1.8767π) = 0.9259

If cos (0.1233π) = 0.9259

Cos [(π/6)t] > cos (0.1233π)

Since (cos θ) is a decreasing function, as θ increases in the first quadrant

(π/6)t < 0.1233π

(t/6) < 0.1233

t < 6×0.1233

t < 0.74 months

If cos (1.8767π) = 0.9259

Cos [(π/6)t] > cos (1.8767π)

cos θ is an increasing function, as θ increases in the 4th quadrant,

[(π/6)t] > 1.8767π (as long as (π/6)t < 2π, that is t ≤ 12)

(t/6) > 1.8767

t > 6 × 1.8767

t > 11.26

Second interval is 11.26 < t ≤ 12.

Hope this Helps!!!
