643 6.4 Translations of the Graphs of the Sine and Cosine Functions (a) Predict the average annual temperature. (b) Plot the average monthly temperature over a two-year period, letting x = 1 correspond to January of the first year. (c) Determine a function of the form ƒ1x2 = acos3b1x - d24 + c, where a, b, c, and d are constants, that models the data. (d) Graph ƒ together with the data on the same coordinate axes. How well does ƒ model the given data? (e) Use the sine regression capability of a graphing calculator to find the equation of a sine curve that fits these data (over a two-year interval). (Modeling) Monthly Temperatures A set of temperature data (in °F) is given in the tables for a particular location. (Data from www.weatherbase.com) (a) Plot the data over a two-year interval. (b) Use sine regression to determine a model for the two-year interval. Let x = 1 represent January of the first year. (c) Graph the equation from part (b) together with the given data on the same coordinate axes. 65.
