Math Problem Statement
Sketch graph of y = cosx +2
Solution
Here is the graph of , showing the oscillation between 1 and 3 with a vertical shift upward by 2 units.
Would you like more details about any part of the graph or its properties?
Here are 5 related questions for further exploration:
- How would the graph change if the function was ?
- What happens to the graph if we multiply the function by a constant, e.g., ?
- How does the period of the graph change if the argument is modified to ?
- Can you explain the phase shift in the cosine function, and how would it affect ?
- What is the significance of the amplitude and how can we adjust it in the equation?
Tip: When graphing transformations, always identify vertical shifts, amplitude changes, and period adjustments first for a clear understanding of how the graph is affected.
