Question 1085919: please help me thank you. at 3:00 p.m. one summer day, the wave height off the coast of harbourtown could be modeled with the equation y=2.4sin(2pi/7t)-0.2,where t is measured in seconds and y in feet.use the model to find the time between each wave.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!

Your post contains fatal errors in the condition formulation:

    1.  The formula is valid at ANY time t, not only at 3:00 pm, as the condition says.


    2.  The value of t in the formula is measured in hours, not in seconds.

Therefore, edit your post accordingly and then re-submit it very quickly.


Otherwise, one can think that you do understand NOTHING in the phenomenon you are asking about . . .
