Question\text{Select the correct answer.}
\text{The height of the average wave, in feet, over } t \text{ hours at Sandy Beach is modeled by the function } g. g(t)=4sin(πt6)+5g(t)=4 \sin \left(\frac{\pi t}{6}\right)+5
\text{The height of the average wave, in feet, over } t \text{ hours, at Windy Beach is modeled by function } h, \text{ shown on this graph.}
\text{The waves at which beach take a longer period of time to complete one full wave cycle?} \begin{enumerate} \item \text{This cannot be determined from the given information.} \item \text{Sandy Beach} \item \text{Windy Beach} \item \text{At both beaches it takes the same amount of time to go through one full wave cycle} \end{enumerate} (c) 2024 \text{ Edmentum.

Studdy Solution
Compare the periods: - Sandy Beach has a period of 12 hours. - Windy Beach has a period of 20 hours.
Since 20 hours is greater than 12 hours, the waves at Windy Beach take a longer period of time to complete one full wave cycle.
The correct answer is:
Windy Beach \boxed{\text{Windy Beach}}
