The equation which represents the equation for the temperature, D , in terms of t is D(t)=5°cos{(π/3)t}+67°.
Given that the high temperature is 72 degrees and low temperature is 62 degrees at 3 A.M.
We know that temperature is the intensity of the heat present around us.
We know that,
Maximum temperature=72 degrees,
Minimum temperature=62 degrees, which occurs at t=3 hours
Now we can write the equation as:
D(t)=A cos(ct)+B
Where A, c, B are constants.
We have a minimum at t=3 a minimum means cos(ct)=-1
then we have that D(3)=A cos(c*3)+B
=A*(-1)+b
=35°
Here we solve that ,
Cos(c*3)=-1
this means that
c*3=-1
c*3=π
c=π/3
We also know that the maximum temperature is 72°, the maximum temperature is when cos(c*t)=1
D(t)=0=A(t)+B=72
With this we can find that values of A and b
-A+B=62
A+B=72
B=67
A=5
Equation will be D(t)=5 cos{(π/3)t}+67°.
Hence the equation for the temperature is D(t)=5 cos{(π/3)t}+67°..
