For a short time after a wave is created by wind, the height of the wave can be modeled using y = a sin 2πt/T, where a is the am

plitude and T is the period of the wave in seconds.
How many times over the first 5 seconds does the graph predict the wave to be 2 feet high?

The graph hits \fbox{\begin\\\ \dfrac{10}{T}+2\\\end{minispace}} times over 2 feet for a>2.

Further explanation:  

The height of the wave is given by the equation as follows:  

y=asin\left(\dfrac{2\pi t}{T}\right)                          ......(1)

Here, a is amplitude, T is period of wave in second and t time in seconds.  

The height y of the wave is given as 2 feet and time t is given as 5 seconds.  

Substitute 2 for y and 5 for t in equation (1).  

2=asin\left(\dfrac{2\pi \times5}{T}\right)\\2=asin\left(\dfrac{10\pi}{T}\right)\\\dfrac{2}{a}=sin\left(\dfrac{10\pi}{T}\right)

The above eqution is valid only for a\geq 2 because the maximum value of the term sin(10\pi /T) is 1.  

If T is the time period then in T seconds the graph will hit at least 2 times over 2 feet for a>2.

T seconds\rightarrow2 hits

1 seconds \rightarrow \dfrac{2}{T} hits

5 seconds \rightarrow\dfrac{2\times5}{T}

5 seconds \rightarrow \dfrac{10}{T}

If T is time period in 5 seconds then the graph will hit [10/T] times in interval 0 to 2\pi.

Thus, the graph hits \fbox{\begin\\\ \dfrac{10}{T}+2\\\end{minispace}} times over 2 feet for a>2.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

36 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to think backwards to solve this question.

(8 - 2) x 2 = 12

(12 - 2) x 2 = 20

(20 - 2) x 2 = 36
