The frequency is #=1/(2pi)#

Explanation:

The period of the sum of #2# periodic functions is the #"LCM"# of their periods.

The period #"sin7t"# is #=(2pi)/(7)=(4pi)/14#

The period #"cos4t"# is #=(2pi)/(4)=(7pi)/(14)#

The #LCM# of #(2pi)/(7)# and #(2pi)/(4)# is

#=(28pi)/14=2pi#

The frequency is #f=1/T=1/(2pi)#
