Textbook Question
Chapter 4.1, Problem 47E
Average Annual Temperature Scientists believe that the average annual temperature in a given location is periodic. The average temperature at a given place during a given season fluctuates as time goes on, from colder to warmer, and back to colder. The graph shows an idealized description of the temperature (in °F) for approximately the last 150 thousand years of a particular location.
(a) Find the highest and lowest temperatures recorded.
(b) Use these two numbers to find the amplitude.
(c) Find the period of the
(d) What is the trend of the temperature now?

what it means to have a change in amplitude and a change in period.
The temperature of a chemical reaction oscillates between a low of 20∘C and a high of 100∘C. The temperature is at its lowest point when t=0 and completes one cycle over a five-hour period.
Find the period, the amplitude, and the midline of the graph
A puffin population oscillates 60 above and below an average of 480 puffins during the year, hitting the lowest
value in January (t = 0).
a. Draw a graph of the puffin population for at least one year. Carefully labet the amplitude, the midline and
the period.
b. Find an equation for the puffin population, P, in terms of the months since January, t.
c. Find a different equation for the puffin population if the lowest value of the puffin population occurred in
March (not January).
