Consider the equation $3\sin\left(3x+\frac{\pi}{7}\right)=-\frac{11}{10}$3sin(3x+π7)=−1110.
a
Which function would be graphed along with $y=-\frac{11}{10}$y=−1110 in order to solve the equation graphically?
b
Graph both of these functions using the graphing facility of your calculator. Hence state all solutions to the equation over the domain $\left[-\frac{13}{42}\pi,\frac{5}{14}\pi\right]$[−1342π,514π]. Give your answers correct to three decimal places separated by commas.
