Tides in a specific location can be approximated using the periodic function shown on the graph. what is the interpretation of the amplitude in this application? a. the time between high tidesb. the time between high tide and low tidec. the sum of the heights at high tide and low tided. the difference between the height at high tide and low tide

Option: D is the correct answer.

D. The difference between the height at high tide and low tide.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amplitude of a graph is the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point or a wave measured from the equilibrium point.

                                             OR

In other words it is the distance between the resting position and maximum displacement of a wave.

Hence, best interpretation of the amplitude in the given wave is:

The difference between the height at high tide and low tide

1/3

step-by-step explanation:

to find this, you can divide 12 by 4 which is 3 or you can multiply 4 until you reach 12 (4x3=12). both should give you 3, meaning theres three times less bananas than there are oranges.
