Question
The height h in feet of a car on a different Ferris wheel can be modeled by , where t is the time in seconds. Determine the period, midline, amplitude, and maximum and minimum values of the graph. For one cycle starting from t=0, identify all points where the graph intersects its midline and the coordinates of any local maxima and minima. Interpret these points in the context of the problem, and graph one cycle.

Step 1
1 of 2We see that , so . Therefore, the period is:
Midline is or . Amplitude is . Maximum value:
Minimum value:
When ,
So, point is on the graph. Also, this is a minimum. There is a second minimum and he is at the end of the cycle at .
A maximum lies halfway between the -values of the minima at . So, point is on the graph.
