Question

Explanation needed here:

Answer 1

Did that other weird one end up being 5 as the correct answer? @Howard-Wolowitz

Answer 2

havent graded it yet

Answer 3

last one

Answer 4

k... doesn't help then :)

Answer 5

what you thinking loser

Answer 6

isnt the formula L=A or A = something

Answer 7

I have no idea!! to me cosecant function has NO amplitude

Answer 8

thats what another guy said

Answer 9

This is what I got to make sure what I thought http://www.cathedralcatholic.org/faculty-resources/82/63/Ch%204%20Notes%20Part%202.pdf

Answer 10

the last paragraph

Answer 11

yeap, I agree with Loser66, quite unsure on what it's being asked as well

Answer 12

the function has a cyclical range, and thus no height per se, not to mention has cyclical asymptotes as well

Answer 13

If we interpret the phrase "height" naively, we would probably say that the height is 2 (that is the amplitude in front of the trig function). Frankly, none of the choices seems to make sense, but that is as good as I would do myself.

Answer 14

can't even see the picutre

Answer 15

@xapproachesinfinity click on the picture to magnify.

Answer 16

well i dont know dude

Answer 17

does not appear even if i magnify it

Answer 18

QUESTION:
"Identify the height for the function: \[f(t) = 2\csc\left(4t - \frac{\pi}{5} \right) + 1\]
Choices:
A) 2pi/5
B) 8
C) 2
D) 3"

Answer 19

thanks!

Answer 20

now i can see it
the height of \[\csc x=1\]
so \[\csc(4t-\frac{\pi}{5})=1 \\ 2\csc (4t-\pi/5)=2\]
\[2\csc(4t-\pi/5)+1=3\]
\[y=3\]
that would be the height

Answer 21

hmmm

Answer 22

actually i do agree with loser
csc has no amplitude lol

Answer 23

perhaps they meant what is the local minima or something

Answer 24

well thanks for trying

Answer 25

i had the feeling of using local minima that happens when cscx=1

Answer 26

what course is this ?

Answer 27

advanced algebra

Answer 28

your course is wrongly interpreting the concepts of height
i saw that in your previous questions as well

Answer 29

Answer 30

as far as i know i agree with loser and jdoe

Answer 32

@zepdrix

Answer 33

i gotta help Ur help @zepdrix

Answer 34

Height is usually measured from the x-axis,
so I would imagine either 2 or 3 is the correct answer.
I would lean towards 3, but again, I agree with everyone else here, the wording is very poor.

Answer 35

thank you for helping
