Throughout the day, the depth of water at the end of a dock varies with the tides. The function h(t)=5cos(0.5t-2)+7 represents the height, in feet, of the water t hours after midnight. Which graph shows the height of the water at the dock at any time after midnight?

Respuesta :

Remember that for a graphic of a trigonometric functions of the form [tex]f(x)=Acos(Bx+C)+D[/tex]
[tex]A[/tex] is the amplitude of the function 
[tex]f(x)=D[/tex] is the midline of the trigonometric function 

We know form our problem that [tex]A=5[/tex], so the amplitude of our function is 5. We also know that the [tex]D=7[/tex]. So the midline of our function is the line [tex]h(t)=7[/tex]. 

Using those two features we can conclude that the graph that shows the height of the water at the dock at any time after midnight is:
