Chapter 4.5, Problem 4E

To determine

To complete the given statement.

Answer to Problem 4E

For the function $y=d+a\cos \left(bx-c\right)$ , $d$ represents the verticalshift of the graph of the function.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

For the function $y=d+a\cos \left(bx-c\right)$ , $d$ represents the ________ ________ of the graph of the function.

Calculation:

For the standard equation $y=d+a\cos \left(bx-c\right)$ .

Amplitude is $\left|a\right|$ and period is $\frac{2\pi }{b}$ .

Vertical shift is $d$ unit and horizontal shift or phase shift is $\frac{c}{b}$
