We have that the spring is going to have a sin or a cos equation. We have that the maximum distance of the spring is 6 inches and it is achieved at t=0. Let's fix this as the positive edge. Until now, we have that the function is of the form:
6sin(at+B). We have that the period is 4 minutes and hence that the time component in the equation needs to make a period (2pi) in 4 minutes. Thus 4min*a=2p, a=2p/4=pi/2. In general, a=2pi/T where a is this coefficient, T is the period. Finally, for B, since sin(pi/2)=1, we have that B=pi/2 because when t=0, we have that 6sin(B)=6. Substituting, we have f(t)=6sin(pi*t/2+pi/2)=6cos(pi*t/2)
by trigonometric identities.
Answer:
-95.78
Step-by-step explanation:
As the researcher decided to make the number of parties attended per week the explanatory variable, this would be variable x in the regression line, and of course, the variable y would be the number of text messages sent per day.
After constructing the linear regression equation, the researcher found that an approximate value
for the actual value of y could be represented by the line
Since this is an approximate value, it is not expected that it coincides with the actual value of y. We define then the residual for each value of x as the difference between the actual value of y and the approximation for the given x.
For the value x = 2 (the student attended 2 parties that week) the actual value of y is 20 (the student sent 20 text messages per day that week).
The approximate value of y would be according to the regression line
Hence, the residual value for x=2 would be
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:


Hence the circumference of the circle is: 6π or 18.84 units
Answer:
a) 
b) Wind capacity will pass 600 gigawatts during the year 2018
Step-by-step explanation:
The world wind energy generating capacity can be modeled by the following function

In which W(t) is the wind energy generating capacity in t years after 2014, W(0) is the capacity in 2014 and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.
371 gigawatts by the end of 2014 and has been increasing at a continuous rate of approximately 16.8%.
This means that

(a) Give a formula for W , in gigawatts, as a function of time, t , in years since the end of 2014 . W= gigawatts



(b) When is wind capacity predicted to pass 600 gigawatts? Wind capacity will pass 600 gigawatts during the year?
This is t years after the end of 2014, in which t found when W(t) = 600. So




We have that:

So we apply log to both sides of the equality





It will happen 3.1 years after the end of 2014, so during the year of 2018.
