Answer:

  D.  π/30 + n(π/15)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation can be solved by isolating the cosine function and using the inverse function to find the angles.

Solution

  30cos(30x) +14 = -16

  30cos(30x) = -30 . . . . . . subtract 14

  cos(30x) = -1

This is an extreme value of the cosine function that first occurs where the argument is π, and repeats every 2π after that:

  30x = π +2nπ

  x = π/30 +n(π/15) . . . . . odd multiples of π/30

Additional comment

The answer choices other than D include all multiples of π/30, or only even multiples of π/30. Either way, they are not part of the correct answer.
