i think i'm just about ready to jump out a window, *sigh* can anyone please help me with this attachment of a sine graph....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

Ok, so let's start by looking at the normal graph of sin x

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

So pull that up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay got it on wolfram

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

now, slightly modify it, make it like sin x + 6 what does that do to the graph?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well thats the vertical shift so it goes up 6?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

good, so what letter would that be in your problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D but isnt d 30?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

good, why?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

wait not right

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

what is the vertical shift?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

d... 30?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

no, remember what is the max of the sine function? What is the max for this function?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

where did you get 15 from?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

I'm sorry, I was looking at the wrong line. 30 is the correct answer

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

At least from the picture, it appears to be. Can you just tell me why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay well can you help me solve it all?

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

that would be what i'm doing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol ik >.< urmmm its 30 because it starts at 30, moves up that way

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

yes, that is correct. now let's see what happens to sin x if we change it to 4sinx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

urm is the answers a=15? b=2pi/9? and D=30? ..... im rushing cuz i have to go >.<

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

idk i have'nt done it yet. and i don't give answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ive been doing this question for 3 hours.... i have a paper to write that's worth half my grade and im in A.P art 2 projects due a week, plus homework because my school is advanced..... i showed work for it........................ i just want to check it over............... im literally about to have a breakdown.... *sigh* ill just take a hit in math..... thanks for the help anyway...

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

Do me a favor, Take a break.

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

Relax. Stop doing math. Come back tomorrow and I'll walk you through it ok?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm pulling an all nighter again....i'll try, but yea thanks, i really appreciate it
