A spring attached to a wall oscillates back and forth without friction. When the spring is fully compressed, the end of the spring is 0.5 feet from the wall. When the spring is fully extended, the end of the spring is 1.5 feet from the wall. It takes 1 second for the spring to go from its fully compressed position to its fully extended position. At time t=0, the spring is fully compressed.

Write the equation of a cosine function that could model the distance D(t), in feet, of the end of the spring from the wall as a function of time t, in seconds.

-0.5cos(pit)+1
