What is the rate of change from x = π to x = 2π?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is it \[-8/\pi\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

looks like it goes from \(4\) to \(-4\) on that interval, so you might say the average rate of change is \(-\frac{8}{\pi}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, what you said

OpenStudy (anonymous):

See I could do this

@hartnn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry but there is a mistake in the question the lowest point of none of those is at \(t=0\) because \(\sin(0)=0\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what do I put?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i guess the overworked underpaid graduate student living on ramen noodles had a couple beers before writing this but i guess you are supposed to say D that one has period \(10\) and also goes from \(30\) to \(70\) but it is not the minimum at \(t=0\) for sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

write them and tell them there is a mistake the minimum value of sine is \(-1\) which occurs not at \(\sin(0)\) but elsewhere

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jim_thompson5910 Is it D?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

why do you think it's D?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jim_thompson5910 Is it D, if not what is the answer

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

it sounds like you're making a random guess at D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Someone told me it is D, is it? @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

did they explain how they chose D?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No but is it?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what is the period of choices A and B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am not sure?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

in general, the period of y = A*sin(Bx-C) + D is T = 2pi/B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

SO what is the correct answer?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

for choices A and B, we have B = 10 So T = 2pi/B T = 2pi/10 T = ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So is it D?
