7-158.

Repeating wave curve, first visible, high & low points: (negative pi halves, comma 1) & (pi halves, comma negative 1). Susan knew how to shift to get the graph at right, but she wondered if it would be possible to get the same graph by shifting .

  1. Is it possible to write a cosine function for this graph?

    Yes, it is.

  2. If you think it is possible, find an equation that does it. If you think it is impossible, explain why.

    The graph of starts at a maximum. This graph has a maximum at

  3. Adlai said, “I can get that graph without shifting to the right or left.” What equation did he write?
