Converting to \(\mathrm{D}^{\circ} \mathrm{M}^{\prime} \mathrm{S}^{\prime \prime}\) Form \(\quad\) Convert each angle measure to degrees, minutes, and seconds without using a calculator. Then check your answers using a calculator. (a) \(-345.12^{\circ}\) (b) \(-3.58^{\circ}\)
Sketch a graph of the function. $$f(x)=\arccos \frac{x}{4}$$
A car is moving at a rate of 65 miles per hour, and the diameter of its wheels is 2 feet. (a) Find the number of revolutions per minute the wheels are rotating. (b) Find the angular speed of the wheels in radians per minute.
Use a graphing utility to graph the function and the damping factor of the function in the same viewing window. Describe the behavior of the function as \(x\) increases without bound. $$y=\frac{6}{x}+\cos x, \quad x>0$$
Data Analysis The table shows the average sales \(S\) (in millions of dollars) of an outerwear manufacturer for each month \(t,\) where \(t=1\) represents January. $$\begin{array}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text { Time, } t & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 \\ \hline \text { Sales, } S & 13.46 & 11.15 & 8.00 & 4.85 & 2.54 & 1.70 \\\ \hline \end{array}$$ $$\begin{array}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \text { Time, } t & 7 & 8 & 9 & 10 & 11 & 12 \\ \hline \text { Sales, } S & 2.54 & 4.85 & 8.00 & 11.15 & 13.46 & 14.30 \\ \hline \end{array}$$ (a) Create a scatter plot of the data. (b) Find a trigonometric model that fits the data. Graph the model with your scatter plot. How well does the model fit the data? (c) What is the period of the model? Do you think it is reasonable given the context? Explain your reasoning. (d) Interpret the meaning of the model's amplitude in the context of the problem.
