what is the formula for frequency in calculus?
Frequency of what?
\[\omega/2\pi\]
you have to tell us what
y=4sec(pi-5pix)
\[\omega\]=5pi
so 5/2
yes
thanks :)
what would be the initial phase?
y=4sec(pi-5pix) plug in 0 for x
y= 4 Sec (pi) -4
my options are pi, 0 , pi/2, -pi/2 and -pi
Purely trigonometric functions take the following form: \[ y = A \sin(\omega x + \phi)\] where A is the amplitude, omega is the angular frequency, and phi is the initial phase.
pi
wrong :(
It is perhaps a difference in notation. I write \[ A \sin(\omega x + \phi)\] but it's perfectly okay to write \[A\sin(\omega x - \phi)\] and it would mean exactly the same thing. If this is how you have been taught, then the answer should be -pi, but you should note that they're exactly the same.
yes i got it :D what about for y=-4 sex(5/4 pi x) +4?
It would be zero in that case.
alright thank you so much
