- Sketch the graph of y=2sinx from x=0 to x=2 by making a table using multiples of /2 for x. What is the amplitude of the graph you obtain?arrow_forwardFor a person at rest, the velocity v (in liters per second) of airflow during a respiratory cycle (the time from the beginning of one breath to the beginning of the next) is modeled by v=0.85sint/3, where t is the time (in seconds). a Find the time for one full respiratory cycle. b Find the number of cycles per minute. c Sketch the graph of the velocity function. Use the graph to confirm your answer in part a by finding two times when new breaths begin. (Inhalation occurs when v0, and exhalation occurs when v0.)arrow_forwardRepeat the previous exercise to find the formula forthe APY of an account that compounds daily.
