Question 405669: Calculate the amplitude, period, phase shift, and use the information to sketch one full cycle of the graph of the equation f(t) = 0.2 cos (pi/12 t - 7pi/12), which is used in predicting the height of ocean tidal components.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Calculate the amplitude, period, phase shift, and use the information to sketch one full cycle of the graph of the equation f(t) = 0.2 cos (pi/12 t - 7pi/12), which is used in predicting the height of ocean tidal components.
----
If y = a*sin(bx+c)+d
------
amp = |a| = 0.2
---
period = (2pi)/b = (2pi)/(pi/12) = 24
---
phase shift = -c/b = -(-7pi/12)/(pi/12) = 7
