Waves with an amplitude of 2ft pass a doc every 30 seconds. write an equation for a cosine model the height of a water particle above and below the mean water line

with that template in mind, let's see.

now, since the period is 30, and cos(x) starts off at 1, recall cos(0) = 1, so then le'ts move the starting point over by simply doing a horizontal shift to the right by a quarter of the period, 30/4 = 15/2 units, that way the initial "hump" starts off at 0.

Check the picture below.

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!
