I have the equation 4sin((x/5)- pi) + 2 for a sine wave
what I want is to be able to find a way to distribute out something and put it outside the parenthesis but I'm not sure which would be the best thing.
I'm trying to find the period also on it
the form is supposed to be f(x) = A sin(B(Theta - h)) + k
so I've gotten 4 sin(x/5)(1- pi)) + 2 but it doesn't jive with the answers I'm given
formula for the period is
(2pi)/b
the closest answer is (2pi)/5 but i'm not sure why. guess my distributing skills are rusty.
