The equation of this sinusoidal function is either
f(x) = a sin(bx) + c
or
f(x) = a cos(bx) + c
Either way, the plot of f9x) has amplitude a, period 2π/b, and midline y = c.
If the period is π/2, then
2π/b = π/2 ⇒ b = 4
If the maximum value is 10 and the minimum value is -4, then
-4 ≤ a sin(4x) + c ≤ 10
-4 - c ≤ a sin(4x) ≤ 10 - c
-(4 + c)/a ≤ sin(4x) ≤ (10 - c)/a
Recall that sin(x) is bounded between -1 and 1. So we must have
-(4 + c)/a = -1 ⇒ a = c + 4
(10 - c)/a = 1 ⇒ a = -c + 10
Combining these equations and eliminating either variable gives
a + a = (c + 4) + (-c + 10) ⇒ 2a = 14 ⇒ a = 7
a - a = (c + 4) - (-c + 10) ⇒ 0 = 2c - 6 ⇒ c = 3
Finally, we have either
f(x) = a sin(bx) + c ⇒ f(0) = c = 3
or
f(x) = a cos(bx) + c ⇒ f(0) = a + c = 3
but the cosine case is impossible since a = 7.
So, the given function has equation
f(x) = 7 sin(4x) + 3

<u>Function modeling</u>
Real-life situations often require the help of mathematics to model numerically what happens when the variables involved can change. It could even be used to predict some expected outcomes from those models.
The problem states Janice receives $.40 per pound when he recycles less or equal than 99 pounds of aluminum. If x is the number of recycled pounds, then the amount of money he receives is

We also know that if he recycles more than 100 pounds of aluminum, the pay increases to $0.5 per pound. In that case, the amount of money is

This is a case where the function is defined differently depending on the conditions of the input variable x. It's called a piecewise function. The function can be written as

Note the function is not well constructed because there is a gap for x=100 where M is not defined. If we establish that for 100 pounds the payment is $0.5, then the second piece would include x=100

Step-by-step explanation:
If 2 lines are perpendicular then the product of their slopes equals - 1
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Consider the given equations
3x - 4y = 12 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
- 4y = - 3x + 12 ( divide terms by - 4 )
y =
x - 3 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 
3y = 12 - 4x = - 4x + 12 ( divide terms by 3 )
y = -
x + 4 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 
Then
× -
= - 1
Since the product of their slopes = - 1 then the lines are perpendicular
