Have you ever noticed that we use the vocabulary of angles in everyday speech? Here is an example: My opinion about art museums took a \(180^{\circ}\) turn after visiting the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Explain what this means. Then give another example of the vocabulary of angles in everyday use.
Without drawing a graph, describe the behavior of the basic cosine curve.
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. I used a tangent function to model the average monthly temperature of New York City, where \(x=1\) represents January, \(x=2\) represents February, and so on.
Rounded to the nearest hour, Los Angeles averages 14 hours of daylight in June, 10 hours in December, and 12 hours in March and September. Let \(x\) represent the number of months after June and let \(y\) represent the number of hours of daylight in month \(x .\) Make a graph that displays the information from June of one year to June of the following year.
Carbon dioxide particles in our atmosphere trap heat and raise the planet's temperature. Even if all greenhousegas emissions miraculously ended today, the planet would continue to warm through the rest of the century because of the amount of carbon we have already added to the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide accounts for about half of global warming. The function $$y=2.5 \sin 2 \pi x+0.0216 x^{2}+0.654 x+316$$ models carbon dioxide concentration, \(y,\) in parts per million, where \(x=0\) represents January \(1960 ; x=\frac{1}{12},\) February \(1960 ; x=\frac{2}{12},\) March \(1960 ; \ldots, x=1,\) January \(1961 ; x=\frac{13}{12}\) February \(1961 ;\) and so on. Use a graphing utility to graph the function in a [30,48,5] by [310,420,5] viewing rectangle. Describe what the graph reveals about carbon dioxide concentration from 1990 through 2008
