Answer:

Option B. Amplitude =3 midline is y =2.

Explanation:

In the graph attached we have to find the amplitude and midline of the periodic function.

Amplitude of the periodic function = (Distance between two extreme points on y asxis)/2

= (5-(-1))/2 = (5+1)/2 =6/2 =3.

Since amplitude of this function is 3 and by definition amplitude of any periodic function is the distance between the midline and the extreme point of wave on one side.

Therefore midline of the wave function is y=2 from which measurement of the amplitude is 3.
