How do i find the period of this function?
y=cos 1/3x

period= 2pi/b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
where is b?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2pi/1/3 so yall gotta multiply 2pi by tha reciprocal its 6pi so yall got 1/3 of the curve in 1 interval
OpenStudy (anonymous):
b=1/3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
18.84 correct ?

for the period? no.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
6pi
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2∏÷1/3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
therefore multiply 2∏ by the reciprocal of 1/3. 2∏×3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah that's equal 6pi <---

but how to graph ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes thus the persiod is 6pi
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wolfram it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well i need to know it for the test :|
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how to graph y=cos1/3x guys ?

period=2pi/coefficient in front of x. amplitude=whatever trig function is multiplied by.
OpenStudy (kropot72):
\[\cos (1/3)x=\cos (2\pi ft)\]
Where \[2\pi f\]is the angular frequency
\[(1/3)x=2\pi ft\]
\[f=x/(6\pi t)\]
Period = T = 1/f
\[T=(6\pi t)/x\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thats just a complicated way of explaining that and it uses a physics formula that isnt needed for trig
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you know the easier way to draw this graph ?

What is your answer for the period Redlinl?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2pi/coefficient in front of x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
graph it pleaseeeeeeee
