(Modeling) Solve each problem. See Example 6. 69. Wattage Consumption Use the identity cos 20 = 1- 2 sin2 0 to determine values of a, c, and w so that the equation (163 sin 120t)2 W = becomes W = a cos(wt) + c. 15 Round to the nearest tenth as necessary. Check by graphing both expressions for W on the same coordinate axes.

Question

The question I would like assistance with is posted below:

**Modeling**: Solve each problem. See Example 6.

**69. Wattage Consumption**  
Use the identity \(\cos 2\theta = 1 - 2 \sin^2 \theta\) to determine values of \(a\), \(c\), and \(\omega\) so that the equation

\[
W = \left(\frac{163 \sin 120\pi t}{15}\right)^2
\]

becomes 

\[
W = a \cos(\omega t) + c
\]

Round to the nearest tenth as necessary. Check by graphing both expressions for \(W\) on the same coordinate axes.
