OpenStudy (anonymous):

What kind of graph is it first of all? :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think a sine graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is it 4sinx?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you're on the right track :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i plugged that in, but answer came out wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What about the x - axis?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16 pi?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do you incorporate that in your function?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no idea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i would say 4sinx + 16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that would shift it up, yeah?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right..so 4sin(x-16)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No the function should be 4sin(x/8)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup jtot got it.
