Which function f (x) , graphed below, or g (x) , whose equation is g (x) = 3 cos 1/4 (x + x/3) + 2, has the largest maximum and what is the value of this maximum?

f(x), and the maximum is 3.

g(x), and the maximum is 5.’

f(x), and the maximum is 2.

g(x), and the maximum is 2.

g(x), and the maximum is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

for given function f(x), the maximum can be seen from the shown graph i.e. 2

But for the function g(x), maximum needs to be calculated.

Given function :

g (x) = 3 cos 1/4 (x + x/3) + 2

let x=0 (as cosine is a periodic function and has maximum value of 1 at 0 angle)

g(x)= 3 cos1/4(0 + 0) +2

    = 3cos0 +2

     = 3(1) +2

     = 3 +2

     = 5 !
