Question 1103957: Suppose a sales can be modelled by the sinusoidal equation:
where t is time in months with t=0 corresponding to
January. For what month are sales equal to 0?

Presumably the equation is supposed to be
....
For the sales to be 0, must be -1; that means must be equal to .
If t=0 represents January, then t=4 represents May.
The equation indicates that sales are 0 in the month of May.
