Step-by-step explanation:
y = A sin (Bx - C) + D
A: amplitude = max - D or D - min
B: Period = 2π/B ---> B = 2π/Period
C: Phase Shift = C/B ---> C = B · Phase Shift
D: center
Given:
D = 80 the field has a height of 160 ft so the center is at y = 80
A = 65 the min is at 5 yds (15 ft). D - min = 80 - 15 = 65
B = 60 the person next to Darla is 10 yds (30 ft) --> Period = 60
B = 2π/60 = π/30
C = 5π the field is 300 ft wide so the center is 150 ft
Phase Shift = 150. C = B · Phase Shift = π/30 · 150 = 5π
A = (-) the band ends down (at 15 feet) so A is negative
