The monthly high temperature for Atlantic City. New Jersey, peaks at an average high of 86 ° in July and goes down to an average high of 64 ° in January. Assume that this pattern for monthly high temperatures continues indefinitely and behaves like a cosine wave. a. Write a function of the form H t = A cos B t − C + D to model the average high temperature. The value H t is the average high temperature for month t , with January as t = 0. b. Graph the function from part (a) on the interval 0 , 13 and plot the points 0 , 64 , 6 , 86 and 12 , 64 to check the accuracy of your model.
