The correct Answer is:
To find the period of the function \( f(x) = \sin(3x) + \tan(7x) \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the period of \( \sin(3x) \) The period of the sine function \( \sin(x) \) is \( 2\pi \). For \( \sin(mx) \), the period is given by: \[ T_1 = \frac{2\pi}{m} \] In our case, \( m = 3 \): \[ T_1 = \frac{2\pi}{3} \] ### Step 2: Determine the period of \( \tan(7x) \) The period of the tangent function \( \tan(x) \) is \( \pi \). For \( \tan(mx) \), the period is given by: \[ T_2 = \frac{\pi}{m} \] In our case, \( m = 7 \): \[ T_2 = \frac{\pi}{7} \] ### Step 3: Find the least common multiple (LCM) of the periods To find the period of the sum of the two functions, we need to find the LCM of \( T_1 \) and \( T_2 \): \[ T_1 = \frac{2\pi}{3}, \quad T_2 = \frac{\pi}{7} \] The LCM of two fractions \( \frac{a}{b} \) and \( \frac{c}{d} \) is given by: \[ \text{LCM}\left(\frac{a}{b}, \frac{c}{d}\right) = \frac{\text{LCM}(a, c)}{\text{GCD}(b, d)} \] Here, \( a = 2\pi \), \( b = 3 \), \( c = \pi \), and \( d = 7 \). ### Step 4: Calculate LCM of the numerators \[ \text{LCM}(2\pi, \pi) = 2\pi \] ### Step 5: Calculate GCD of the denominators Since 3 and 7 are coprime: \[ \text{GCD}(3, 7) = 1 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the overall LCM Now, we can find the LCM of the two periods: \[ \text{LCM}\left(\frac{2\pi}{3}, \frac{\pi}{7}\right) = \frac{2\pi}{1} = 2\pi \] ### Conclusion Thus, the period of the function \( f(x) = \sin(3x) + \tan(7x) \) is: \[ \boxed{2\pi} \]
