a person's blood pressure is modeled by the function: P(x)=120+25sin(160pix) where P(x) is the pressure at time t measured in minutes. Give the period and frequency

OpenStudy (anonymous):

equation look like this: P(x)=\[120+25\sin (160\Pi x)\]

Directrix (directrix):

We need to get the given equation in the form of the one in the attachment so that we can identify the period and frequency.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok... did you see what directrix pulled up?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

still there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

period is defined as 2pi/B. what is your B in your model?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm here and B is 160 pi right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes.. so Period = 2pi/B what's your period?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2pi/160pi, right? (sorry laptop is slow)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes... can you simplify that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

80pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

don't the pi s cancel?
