and if possible may i get a quick explanation for each? id really appreciate it, thank you so much

hallow ice
#

A is 1/2 the distance from max to min so since its 10 from max to min you know A is 5

#

periods just 2pi/b

#

phase shift is in the same vein how far away from a normal sine curve

limber chasm
#

whast the difference between phase shift and veritical shift?

limber chasm
hallow ice
#

vertical moves it along the y axis

limber chasm
#

how do i find those based off this graph? would i need to find the graph equation first?

hallow ice
limber chasm
#

so how would i find the frequency factor b and both the shifts?

hallow ice
limber chasm
#

im kind of confused how youd get that though, sorry

hallow ice
#

so since this is from -26 to -16 the midline is 5 away from both or at y=-21

#

so we know d is -21

limber chasm
#

ahh i see thats the vertical shift

hallow ice
#

to find the period youd see long it would take to repeat a value so its -16 at -10 and its back at -16 again at 6 so the period is 16 and thats our B value and from that we divde 2pi by it so itz 2pi/16 or pi/8

#

so I dont get lost im just gonna type it out

limber chasm
#

and howd would you find the phase shift lastly?

hallow ice
#

0,pi/2,pi,3pi/2,2pi etc...

limber chasm
#

how would i find the difference between them in this graph

hallow ice
limber chasm
#

im sorry i dont understand 😭

#

inside of the graph equal to 0?

hallow ice

#

okay thank you

limber chasm
hallow ice
#

the phase shift is just how far away the curve is from the oarent graph

#

so lets look at sine of zero

#

we know it has to be zero at zero but this graph is zero at -2

#

well a min

#

but you know what I mean

limber chasm
#

yah the minimum at -2

hallow ice
# limber chasm yah the minimum at -2

so we then set up the insixe of the function (bx-c) and set it equal to that shift of -2 so it becomes pi/8x=-2 which yields the phase shift is -pi/4

limber chasm
#

oh so to find the phase shift, we find the minimum y value and then set it equal to the frequency factor and solve?

hallow ice
#

i just used the min as its easier

#

but any of them would have worked

limber chasm
hallow ice
#

we use the min and max values yo find the midline

limber chasm
#

ah okay okay thank you so much for the help

hallow ice
#

np

limber chasm
#

also one more question @hallow ice

#

sorry for the bother but

#

how would you find amplitude based off minimum and maximum points of a sin graph

#

like if max was (4.5, 2) and minimum was (1.5, 22)

hallow ice
#

so youd average it out

#

so A would ve there 3

#

and youx have a vertical ahift of 1.5 up

limber chasm
#

oh i thought wed have to look at y values like before

#

not the x values

hallow ice
limber chasm
#

so wouldnt a be 10

#

and vertical shift be 12

hallow ice
limber chasm
#

amplitiude is half the distance from maximum to minmum value

#

so 20/2

hallow ice
#

i misread

#

yes

#

it would be

#

the average of them

#

so 20+2/2

#

or 11

limber chasm
hallow ice
#

wajt

#

did you mean -20?

#

either way amplitude just tells you how tall it is

limber chasm
#

point is 1.5,22 so 22

#

but i get it now, thank you!!

limber chasm
#

hello again @hallow ice 😭

#

if i have a graph like this

#

with these as data points

#

how do i just find the phase shift
