2. At rest, the human heart beats once every second. At the strongest part of the beat, a person's blood pressure peaks at 120mmHg. At the most relaxed part of the beat, a person's blood pressure drops to 80mmHg. Supposing that t = 0 corresponds to the peak of the beat, write down a trigonometric function that captures this behaviour. Sketch the blood pressure over two heart beats. W

2.
At rest, the human heart beats once every second. At the strongest
part of the beat, a person's blood pressure peaks at 120mmHg. At the most
relaxed part of the beat, a person's blood pressure drops to 80mmHg. Supposing
that t = 0 corresponds to the peak of the beat, write down a trigonometric
function that captures this behaviour. Sketch the blood pressure over two heart
beats.
