For the function given, state the starting point for a sample period:f(t)=-100sin(50t-20)
\[\Huge\color{#480a99}{\mathbb{WELCOME\\TO\\OPENSTUDY}}\]
answer choices are (30,0), (2/5,100), (20,0),(2/5,0)
f(t) = sin(t) starts at (0, 0) Even with an amplitude of 100, it will start at (0, 0) We now have to consider the phase shift. y = Asin(Bx - C) + D The phase shift is C/B What is the phase shift in your function?
i don't even know what to do. can u answer it for me? i have a test due and i need to pass it
What you can easily do is graph it: https://www.desmos.com/calculator/gjek9vojsn Where does it start at?
does it start at 0,0
No, it doesn't. That is where it would start at if we didn't have any phase shifts.
i don't know give me hint
I'm sorry but we're not allowed to help on tests/quizzes/exams/assessments here :/ that would be considered cheating :( http://pages.citebite.com/c3n6a1q0a0mvl
@king2001 Looking at the graph, what is the first place it crosses the x-axis? https://www.desmos.com/calculator/gjek9vojsn
the 10?
ok whats next then
That is the point.
ok
so what would be the answer then
Look at your answer choices. All you need to do is convert 0.4 into a fraction.
that would be 2/5
would it be 2/5,100 right or 2/5, 0
The point in the graph says (0.4, 0) The y-coordinate is 0. Which one of those two has 0 as the y-coordinate?
2/5,0
Correct
thanks. i have one more problem can u help me with it
Sure! Make a new post for it!
ok thx
