From the graphed cosine function we are given, we have;
1) Amplitude = 4
2) Equation of midline; m = 2
3) Period of the function = 3π
4) The function shifted 0.5 units left.
5) The function shifted 2 units up.
- 1) The amplitude is the distance between the center line and the positive or negative peak of the graph. Now, the positive peak is 6 and the negative one is 2. Thus, Amplitude = 6 - 2 = 4
- 2) Equation of the midline is the line that divides the entire sinusoidal curve into 2 equal parts along the x-axis. Since amplitude is 4, then the equation of midline is; m = 4/2 ; m = 2.
- 3) The period is the time it takes for the graph to repeat or complete one cycle and in this graph, it is 3π.
- 4) Looking at the graph, ideally the coordinate (-0.5π, 6) should have been on the y-axis which is at (0π, 6). This means it was shifted by 0.5 units to the left side.
- 5) The positive peak should be equal to the negative peak but in this case, positive is 6 and negative is 2. This means, for them to be equal, they have to each be 4. Thus, the graph was shifted by 2 units upwards .
