Q. The graph of a sinusoidal function has a minimum point at (0,2) and then has a maximum point at (3π,6).Write the formula of the function, where x is entered in radians.f(x)=□
Calculate Amplitude: Determine the amplitude of the function.The amplitude is half the distance between the maximum and minimum values of the function.Amplitude = (Maximum−Minimum)/2Amplitude = (6−2)/2Amplitude = 4/2Amplitude = 2
Find Vertical Shift: Find the vertical shift, D. The vertical shift is the average of the maximum and minimum values of the function. D=(Maximum+Minimum)/2D=(6+2)/2D=8/2D=4
Determine Period: Calculate the period of the function.The period is the distance between two consecutive minimum or maximum points. Since we have a minimum at x=0 and the next maximum at x=3π, the period is twice this distance.Period = 2×(3π−0)Period = 6π
Calculate Value of B: Find the value of B using the period formula for a sinusoidal function. Period = (2π)/B6π=(2π)/BB=(2π)/(6π)B=1/3
Apply Phase Shift: Since the function has a minimum at x=0, we will use a cosine function with a phase shift to reflect this. A cosine function normally has a maximum at x=0, so we need to shift it by π to make it a minimum.C=π
Write Function Equation: Write the equation of the function using the values found for A, B, C, and D. f(x)=A⋅cos(Bx+C)+D f(x)=2⋅cos(31x+π)+4
