Question

How do you find the period of a graph?

How do you find the amplitude and period of this function: y=-3 sinx

Answer 1

its the dot at the end of a sentence

Answer 2

3 is the amplitude since its all out in front

Answer 3

and the period is a normal sin period of 2pi

Answer 4

isn't 2pi the period of sinx?

Answer 5

it was yesterday, but you know how trigsters like to change things on ya without notice

Answer 6

O.o..How come i never get wht u say?..O.o

Answer 7

its my florida southern drawl ;)

Answer 8

Perhaps....:)

Answer 9

So I am still confused on how to find the period of the graph?

Answer 10

sin(x) is nekkid so you just use its normal period; its normal cycle time of 2pi

Answer 11

sin(2x) means that the period is twice as fast and only take 1/2 the time to make a complete cycle; sin(2x) has a period of 2pi/2 = pi

Answer 12

sin(pi x) has a period of 2pi/pi = 2

Answer 13

@amistre64 that's wht i was going to write :S :P :)

Answer 14

trig is 90% memorization.... after that its just 10% rememberization lol

Answer 15

you was gonna say its nekkid? lol

Answer 16

huh? no i have no idea wht that means....i was going to write that example u wrote with sin(2x)....:P:P:P

Answer 17

ok thanks!
