For \(x>0,\) what effect does \(2^{-x}\) in \(y=2^{-x} \sin x\) have on the graph of \(y=\sin x ?\) What kind of behavior can be modeled by a function such as \(y=2^{-x} \sin x ?\)
Use the keys on your calculator or graphing utility for converting an angle in degrees, minutes, and seconds \(\left(D^{\circ} M^{\prime} S^{\prime \prime}\right)\) into decimal form, and vice versa. Convert each angle to \(D^{\circ} M^{\prime} S^{\prime \prime}\) form. Round your answer to the nearest second. $$30.42^{\circ}$$
Use a graphing utility to graph each pair of functions in the same viewing rectangle. Use a viewing rectangle that shows the graphs for at least two periods. $$y=-2.5 \sin \frac{\pi}{3} x \text { and } y=-2.5 \csc \frac{\pi}{3} x$$
Determine the amplitude, period, and phase shift of each function. Then graph one period of the function. $$y=-4 \cos \left(2 x-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)$$
A clock with an hour hand that is 15 inches long is hanging on a wall. At noon, the distance between the tip of the hour hand and the ceiling is 23 inches. At 3 P.M., the distance is 38 inches; at 6 P.M., 53 inches; at 9 P.M., 38 inches; and at midnight the distance is again 23 inches. If \(y\) represents the distance between the tip of the hour hand and the ceiling \(x\) hours after noon, make a graph that displays the information for \(0 \leq x \leq 24\)
