Answer

b. No

Explanation:

We can easily solve this question by using a graphing calculator or any plotting tool, to check if it is a sinusoid.

The function is

f(x) = 3*sin(2*x) - 5*cos(x)

Which can be seen in the picture below

We can notice that f(x) is a not sinusoid. It has periodic amplitudes, and the function has a period T = 2π

The maximum and minimum values are

Max = 6.937

Min = -6.937

Tell whether or not f(x) = 3 sin 2 - cos x is a sinusoid.-example-1
