Find Amplitude, Period, and Phase Shift y=cos(3x)

Problem

y=cos(3*x)

Solution

1. Identify the standard form of the cosine function, which is y=A*cos(B*(x−C))+D

2. Determine the values of the constants from the given equation y=cos(3*x) where A=1 B=3 C=0 and D=0

3. Calculate the amplitude using the formula Amplitude=|A|

4. Calculate the period using the formula Period=(2*π)/|B|

5. Calculate the phase shift using the value of C

Final Answer

Amplitude=1,Period=(2*π)/3,Phase Shift=0
