(a) For each graph below, select its possible equation from this list.
  • \(y = \sqrt{x - 4}\)
  • \(y = 4^x\)
  • \(y = x^4\)
  • \(y = \dfrac{4}{x}\)
  • \(y = \left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)^x\)
  • \(y = -4x^2\)
  • \(y = 4\cos x\)
  • \(y = \sqrt{4^2 - x^2}\)
(i)
Sketch of a decreasing curve that crosses the y-axis at 1 and gets closer to the x-axis as x increases; 4 is marked on the x-axis

Not to scale

(ii)
Sketch of a quarter circle from (0, 4) on the y-axis to (4, 0) on the x-axis

Not to scale

(b) A graph is drawn on the axes below.
Sketch of a sine-shaped curve for x from 0° to 360°, with y from −1 to 1. It starts above 0, rises to 1, crosses the x-axis at 130°, falls to −1, and crosses the x-axis again at r°, before 360°

Not to scale

The equation of the graph is \(y = \sin(x + p)\), where \(0^\circ \leqslant x \leqslant 360^\circ\).
The \(x\)-intercepts are 130° and \(r\)°.

Write down the value of \(p\) and the value of \(r\). [2]
