\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}♨

The required equation is :


\qquad \bf \dashrightarrow \:y =a \cos(bx) + k

Now, let's find the required values :

  • period (p) = 6

[distance between any successive Crest or trough]

  • a = - 4 (flipped)

  • b = 2π/p = 2π/6 = π/3

  • k = -2

Distance of starting position from origin = k

Now, plug in the values ~


\qquad \bf  \dashrightarrow \: - 4 \cos( (\pi)/(3) x) - 2
