please help! Question C)
The equation h(t) = a sin[b(t-c)] +d has the amplitude: |a| the period: \(\dfrac{2\pi}{b}\) the horizontal phrase shift is c units to the right the vertical phrase shift is d units up
i know that period=25.7 amplitude=25 phase shift= -3.5 vertical shift= 30
im just not sure if that is in terms of cos or sin. Because the original coordinates when graphed is a cosine function but they ask for it in terms of a sine function
is it not that if you shift sin function a \(\pi/2\) units, you have cos one? or vice versa?
so then the cos function would be y=25cos(25.7(t+3.5)+30 what would the sin function be?
You give me the period of cos is 25.7, that means the number right after cos is 0.244 not as you said
the period is 14 seconds but 360/14=25.7
I mean 25cos0.244(t-3.5) +30
okay, so then the sin function is y=25sin(25.7(t+3.5)+30?
oh, I got you!! you calculated !!
why +3.5 not -3.5?
because -(-3.5) =+3.5 when put into the equation
ok, let it there now convert cos to sin the period is 25.7 , right? so 1/4*25.7 = 6.425
you move the cos back to the left 6.425 to get the sin one, right? so sin becomes 25 sin(t-(-3.5+6.425) +30 got me?
okay
dat sit
okay thank you
