The graph of a sinusoidal function has a maximum point at (0,5)(0,5)left parenthesis, 0, comma, 5, right parenthesis and then has a minimum point at (2\pi,-5)(2π,−5)left parenthesis, 2, pi, comma, minus, 5, right parenthesis. Write the formula of the function, where xxx is entered in radians.

you just lost this many points (thank you for the points you are truly generous) : 50 WOW THATS A LOT THX

sinusoidal functions have the standard form of Asin(Bx - C) + D

Where A is the amplitude, 2pi/B gives us our period, C gives us our horizontal shifts in the opposite direction of the sign (because it's inside the parenthesis), and D gives us our vertical shifts in the same direction as the sign of D (positive or negative).

The easiest part is assigning the amplitude which is 3 as stated in the problem. This means that all of the max/mins of the graph will be multiplied by a factor of 3. However, this could be a positive or negative 3 depending on other info in the problem. We'll come back to this in a second.

We know 2pi/B = 8 in our problem. Solving for B gives us B = pi/4.

Now we need to find the corresponding maximum and minimums for a sin/cos function with a period of 8 by taking x values 0, pi/2, pi, 3pi/2, and 2pi (these are all values where normal sin/cos functions are either at their max/min or zero) and then divide each by pi/4. This will give us our new max/mins for a function with period 8. These values are 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8.

Since 2 is a minimum, then we know that there are no horizontal shifts. So C = o

Now we need to figure out if this is a sin or cos graph. A normal cos graph has a value of 0 at x = pi/2 which corresponds x = 2 in our problem. Your problem says that x = 2 will give us a minimum value so this tells us that our function must be a sin graph, not a cos graph. However, a sin graph has a maximum at 2 (which is pi/2 in a normal sin graph) while your problem calls for a minimum. This means that the amplitude we found earlier of 3 must actually be a -3 (I told you we'd get back to this!). The negative sign flips all of the maximums to minimums and vice versa of the sinusoidal graph.

Ok, let's put together what we know so far. A = -3, B = pi/4, and C = 0. So f(x) = -3sin((pi/4)x) + d

But what about D?

Well, your problem says that one minimum of the graph is (2,1). In a graph without vertical shifts, we would expect the minimum to be at (2,-3). The difference between -3 and 1 is 4. This means in order to get from -3 to 1 we have to shift upwards of 4 units. In other words, D = 4.

-3sin((pi/4)x) + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

12 heads

Step-by-step explanation:

if each monster has 47 legs, then there cant be more then 2 monsters because that would be too many legs...and there cant be just 1 monsterbecause that would leave (106 - 47) = 59 legsand human legs wont add up to 59

2 monsters = (2 * 47) = 94 legsleaving (106 - 94) = 12 legs

each human has 2 legsso that means 12/2 = 6 humans.

so we have 2 monsters (each with 47 legs) + 6 humans (each with 2 legs) = 106 legs

so we have 2 monsters and 6 humanseach monster has 3 heads..and if we have 2 monsters, we have (3 * 2) = 6 heads...and if we have 6 humans, we have 6 headsso there is a total of 12 heads <
