Question

In a 24-hour period, a human's body temperature will vary about 3 degrees. When at rest (usually at night), the body conserves heat and the body temperature drops. During activity (usually in the daytime), the body produces heat and the body temperature rises. This situation can be modeled by the periodic function

γ = 1.8 sin³ ((π/12)x - (π/2)) + 98.6

where y represents the body's temperature in degrees Fahrenheit and x represents time, with x=0 corresponding to 12 A.M.

9) Suppose the body temperature of a second shift worker can be modeled by shifting the function six units to the right. Write an equation to model the body temperature of a second shift worker.

Answer 1

T + 98.6 2. 12 shifting the function six units to the right: This would mean we replace x with x - 6.. 2, 12 (2
