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:8% discount will be given
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the Day with 9
1 x 9 = 9 (True)
2 x 9 = 18
3 x 9 = 27
4 x 9 = 36
5 x 9 = 45
6 x 9 = 54
7 x 9 = 63
63 minutes is your answer
hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
let's look at the last line :
x³ + 8x - 3 = Ax³ +5Ax + Bx² + 5B + Cx + D
since we find A, B, C, and D by simply comparing the factors of the various terms in x (or constants) in both sides of the equation, we need to combine a few terms on the right hand side (so that we have one term per x exponent grade).
x³ + 8x - 3 = Ax³ + (5A + C)x + Bx² + (5B + D)
by comparing now both sides, to make both sides truly equal, the factors have to be equal.
A = 1 (the same as for x³ on the left hand side).
B = 0 (a we have no x² on the left side).
5A + C = 8 (a 8 is the factor of x in the left side).
5×1 + C = 8
5 + C = 8
C = 3
5B + D = -3 (as the constant term is -3 on the left side).
5×0 + D = -3
D = -3
so, the 4th answer option is correct.
Yes she is correct..
the reason why is because if she gives her horse 2 apples a day for 10 days, she will have spent 20 apples.
and so to get the number of apples she has remaining after 10 days, just subtract 20 from 24:
24-20 = 4
and you get four. That means that after 10 days she will indeed have 4 apples left
