alright start with period and amplitude
and midline i guess
get those out of the way
amplitude is 2.5, midline is at 8.3, period i have 2pi/9
and the x axis is x hours after midnight righit
yes
but when is it max again
i dont know, sorry
okay, uhhh
a wave goes from max to min back to max
and these two times are equal right
yes
the time it takes to go from max to min is the same as it takes to go from min to max
so with that in mind
can you find the period
im still thinking its 9
period is the time it takes to reach the same place on the graph
so max to min is 9 hours
thats not the same
^

2pi/18 so reduced it is pi/9
yup
i believe there is no phase shift
sin
remember we start at a maximum
