Iver a 24-hour period, the tide in a harbor can be modeled by one period of a sinusoidal function. The tide measures 4.35 ft at

midnight, rises to a high of 8.3 ft, falls to a low of 0.4 ft, and then rises to 4.35 ft by the next midnight.
What is the equation for the sine function f(x), where x represents time in hours since the beginning of the 24-hour period, that models the situation?​

Answer:

f(x)=3.95sin(\frac{\pi}{12}x)+4.35

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Recall:</u>

  • Sinusoidal Function -> f(x)=a*sin(bx+c)+d
  • Amplitude -> a
  • Period -> \frac{2\pi}{|b|}
  • Phase Shift -> -\frac{c}{b}
  • Vertical Shift/Midline -> d

<u>Given:</u>

  • Amplitude -> a=8.3-4.35=3.95
  • Period -> \frac{2\pi}{|b|}=\frac{2\pi}{|24|}=\frac{2\pi}{24}=\frac{\pi}{12}
  • Phase Shift -> -\frac{c}{b}=-\frac{0}{24}=0
  • Vertical Shift/Midline -> d=\frac{8.3+0.4}{2}=\frac{8.7}{2}=4.35

<u>Conclusion:</u>

The equation that models the situation is f(x)=3.95sin(\frac{\pi}{12}x)+4.35

Hope this helped! I've attached a graph of the function so you can understand it better!

A point T on a segment with endpoints D (1, 4) and F (7, 1) partitions the segment in a 3:1 ratio. Find T.
velikii [3]

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

x1= 1 , x2= 7 , m1= 3

y1= 4 , y2= 1 , m2= 1

x=?

y=?

using section formula

x= (m2.x1 + m1.x2)/m1 + m2

x= find yourself

y= (m2.y1 + m1.y2) / m1 + m2

y= find yourself

CORRECT ANSWER GETS BRAINLIEST
kati45 [8]

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

t = 0.25d^{1/2}

Substitute d with 100

t = 0.25 x (100^{1/2})

A number to the half power is equal to the square root of a number.

Square root of 100 is 10: \sqrt{100} = 10

t = 0.25*10

t = 2.5

Hope this helps :)

Have an awesome day!
