Which periodic function, sine or cosine, would be a simpler model for the situation? Explain.

Answer:

A cosine function would be a simpler model for the situation. Since the low tide (minimum depth) occurs at t = 0, a reflected cosine function can be used to model the data without needing a phase shift. Conversely, a sine function would require a phase shift to account for the starting position at the minimum.

Which did you include in your response

A
A cosine function would be a simpler model for the situation.
B
The minimum depth (low tide) occurs at t = 0. A reflection of the cosine curve also has a minimum at t = 0.
C
A sine model would require a phase shift, while a cosine model does not.
