Choose the function whose graph is given by:

Answer:
Option B. y = cosx + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To understand the given graph we will note down it's features as below.
1). Since it's a periodic function and y value of graph is maximum at x=0 so its a cosine function.
2). Vertical shift of the graph is 1 means y=0 is the mid line of the graph.
3). Amplitude of the graph is = (2-0)/2 = 1
4). Phase shift of the given graph = 0
The graph satisfying all properties is option B. y = cosx + 1
Answer:
The correct option is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given graph it is clear that the maximum value of the function is 2 at x=0, so it a cosine function.
The general form of a cosine function is
[tex]y=a\cos(bx+c)+d[/tex] .... (1)
Where, a is amplitude, 2π/b is period, c is phase shift and d is midline.
Since maximum value is 2 and minimum value is 0, so
[tex]Amplitude=a=\frac{2-0}{2}=1[/tex]
[tex]Midline=b=\frac{2+0}{2}=1[/tex]
[tex]Period=2\pi\Rightarrow b=1[/tex]
Since maximum value is at x=0, therefore the phase shift is c=0.
Put these values in equation 1.
[tex]y=1\cos(1x+0)+1[/tex]
[tex]y=\cos(x)+1[/tex]
Therefore the correct option is B.
