Question

At a coffee shop, the manager recorded the number of customers who visited the store at the end of each hour. The graph shows the recordings for a 24-hour period. The function describing this graph is a transformation of the parent sine function, y=sin(x)

Which value is closest to the amplitude of the transformed function?

O 83 customers
O 27 customers
O 54 customers
O 30 customers

Answer 1

Explanation:

The amplitude of a sine function is equal to one-half the distance between the maximum and minimum values of the function.

In this case, the maximum value is approximately 84 customers, and the minimum value is approximately 30 customers

Therefore, the value that is closest to the amplitude of the transformed function is 27 customers.
