Trig Function 67339F
1. The problem asks us to find an expression for the function $f(x)$ in the form $f(x) = a \cdot \sin(x)$ or $f(x) = a \cdot \cos(x)$ where $a$ is an integer.
2. To determine $a$, we need information about the graph such as amplitude, period, or specific points. Since the graph is not provided here, we assume the amplitude $a$ is the maximum absolute value of $f(x)$.
3. The general forms are:
- $f(x) = a \cdot \sin(x)$ where the amplitude is $|a|$
- $f(x) = a \cdot \cos(x)$ where the amplitude is $|a|$
4. Without additional data, the simplest assumption is $a=1$, so $f(x) = \sin(x)$ or $f(x) = \cos(x)$.
5. If the graph shows a sine wave starting at zero, use $f(x) = \sin(x)$.
If it starts at maximum, use $f(x) = \cos(x)$.
Final answer:
$$f(x) = \sin(x)$$
or
$$f(x) = \cos(x)$$
depending on the graph's phase.
