if you try plotting it, you'll find it looks similar to $y=\sin{x}$
but they are actually only the same at integer multiples of $\frac{\pi}{3}$
Jay
If you know the formula $\sin{3x}=3\sin^x - 4\sin^3{x}$, you can
rewrite the equation into a conveniently factorised form:
$y=\frac{1}{18}\sin{x}\left(15+4\sin^2{x}\right)$
which should address the $x$-intercepts question, at least.
Jay
Note that the symmetry of the function is odd, so you know that the heights for the maxima and minima must be opposites
idk how to do anything tbh
can you try and find the answers for me. 1 and 13 are correct but the rest are wrong
my brain literally isnt working right now
<@&286206848099549185> please someone solve this i actually have no clue
like i said the first and 13th answer are correct but everything else was wrong
Telling you the answers won't help you to learn.
However, I pointed out that,
by using the formula $\sin{3x}=3\sin{x} - 4\sin^3{x}$,
you can rewrite the equation into a factorised form:
$y=\frac{1}{18}\sin{x}\left(15+4\sin^2{x}\right)$
Can you get this result?
If so, for the $x$-intercepts, you need to solve $y=0$.
What does this give?
Jay
Can you find $\frac{dy}{dx}$ from the original equation?
Stationary points will be when $\frac{dy}{dx}=0$... what does this give?
Jay
i dont understand hgow to do that
idk what that means
i dont know how to do any of this jay
please tell me the answers i need to get this correct
please jay 😦
Show your working for how you got the answers you put in
