25. The function y = 3sin ≠ t models the position of a fishing boat on<br />

4<br />

the ocean relative to sea level. The independent variable t is given<br />

in seconds, and the dependent variable y is given in feet above or<br />

below sea level.<br />

a. Graph the trigonometric function for values of θ between<br />

0 and 12 seconds.<br />

b. How long does it take the boat to complete one full cycle as it<br />

rides the waves of the ocean<br />

c. What is the amplitude of the function What is the physical<br />

interpretation of this value<br />

d. How would the equation of the function change if the boat<br />

were riding on a 4-foot wave y = 4 sin π t<br />
