The world's tallest Ferris wheel is in Las Vegas. The height h in feet of one of the passenger seats on the Ferris wheel can be modeled by the function f(t) = 275 + 260 sin ( 3 ) where timet is measured in minutes
after 8:00 a. m.
1. What is the diameter of the Ferris wheel? Explain how you know.
2. How long does it take the Ferris wheel to make a complete revolution? Explain how you know.
3. Give at least three different times when the passenger seat modeled by f is at its lowest point. Explain how
you know
4. Sketch a graph of the height of the seat on the Ferris wheel for at least two full revolutions.
