Tide height as a function of time resembles a sinusoidal function during the time between low and high tide.
At one such location on another planet with water, the tide has a high of 12.7 feet at 2 am and then the next low is -0.8 feet at 11 am (9 hours later).
Find a formula for a sinusoidal function H(t) that gives the height tt hours after midnight.
A ferris wheel is 15 meters in diameter and boarded from a platform that is 5 meters above the ground. The six o'clock position on the ferris wheel is level with the loading platform. The wheel completes 1 full revolution in 4 minutes. The function h = f(t) gives your height in meters above the ground t minutes after the wheel begins to turn.
Amplitude -------- Minutes
Midline ------ Minutes
period ----- minutes

- Carbon dioxide particles in our atmosphere trap heat and raise the planet’s temperature. Even if all greenhousegas emissions miraculously ended today, the planet would continue to warm through the rest of the century because of the amount of carbon we have already added to the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide accounts for about half of global warming. The function y = 2.5 sin 2πx + 0.0216x2 + 0.654x + 316 models carbon dioxide concentration, y, in parts per million, where x = 0 represents January 1960; x = 1/12, February 1960; x = 2 /12, March 1960; . . . , x = 1, January 1961; x = 13/12, February 1961; and so on.
