Answer 1

To determine which of the given points could be found in the table of values for the function \( g(x) = \cos(-1.5x) - 1 \), we can evaluate the function at \( x = \frac{2\pi}{3} \) and check the output.

1. Calculate \( g\left(\frac{2\pi}{3}\right) \): \[ g\left(\frac{2\pi}{3}\right) = \cos\left(-1.5 \cdot \frac{2\pi}{3}\right) - 1 \] Simplifying the argument: \[ -1.5 \cdot \frac{2\pi}{3} = -\pi \] Now, evaluate \( \cos(-\pi) \): \[ \cos(-\pi) = -1 \] Thus, \[ g\left(\frac{2\pi}{3}\right) = -1 - 1 = -2 \]

From the calculations, we find:

• \( g\left(\frac{2\pi}{3}\right) = -2 \)

Now we can look at the provided options:

1. \( \left(\frac{2\pi}{3}, 0\right) \)
2. "There is no viable option provided."
3. \( \left(\frac{2\pi}{3}, -1\right) \)
4. \( \left(\frac{2\pi}{3}, -2\right) \)

The only point that matches our result is:

• \( \left(\frac{2\pi}{3}, -2\right) \)

So, the correct response is \( \left(\frac{2\pi}{3}, -2\right) \).
