The mathematical solution initially explains how to find the maximum and minimum values of f(x) = 5sin x + 2cos x and how to find, in radians to 2 decimal places, the smallest positive values of x at which they occur. f(x) is written in the form Rcos(x + α). Explanation is then given as to how the maximum and...
