𝑦𝑦(𝑡𝑡) = 2.94 cos(30𝜋𝜋𝜋𝜋 − 0.4𝜋𝜋) + 16.33 cos(64𝜋𝜋𝜋𝜋 + 0.48𝜋𝜋 )

(c) Find 𝑓𝑓𝑠𝑠 > 30 so that 𝑦𝑦(𝑡𝑡) has the form 𝑦𝑦(𝑡𝑡) = 𝐴𝐴 + 𝐵𝐵 cos(20𝜋𝜋𝜋𝜋 + 𝜑𝜑). Furthermore, specify the constants 𝐴𝐴, 𝐵𝐵, and 𝜑𝜑
(where in standard form 𝐵𝐵 > 0 and |𝜑𝜑| < 𝜋𝜋).
𝑦𝑦(𝑡𝑡) = 𝐴𝐴 + 𝐵𝐵 cos(20𝜋𝜋𝜋𝜋 + 𝜑𝜑)
The highest frequency is 15 Hz so 𝑓𝑓𝑠𝑠 > 30 and the 32 Hz signal from x(t) is now missing so 𝑓𝑓𝑠𝑠 < 64.
Additional information is the presence of a DC term (A). This implies that the 32Hz signal is DC. Given the
