As the heart beats, blood pressure increases and
decreases. This happens cyclically at the rate of the
person's heart beat. A doctor is monitoring the blood
pressure of a patient whose heart rate is 70 beats per
minute. The maximum blood pressure over the course of
a 10-minute period is 120 mm/Hg and the minimum is 60
mm/Hg.
Find a sine function that models the person’s blood pressure as a function of time (in minutes).

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Got it right on edge2020

The sine function that models the person’s blood pressure will be f(x) = 30 sin(Πx/5) + 90.

What is a function?

Function is a relationship between two sets X and Y where Set X is called domain and set Y is called codomain.

For example f(x)= sin x+ cos x

We have,

The Blood pressure of patient with the heart rate = 70 beats/ minute

And,

In next 10 minutes,

The maximum blood pressure i.e. (a + d) = 120 mm/Hg

The maximum blood pressure i.e. (-a + d) = 60 mm/Hg

So,

Sine function works on;

f(x) = a sin(bx + c) +d

So,

Now,

Adding Maximum and Minimum blood pressure,

i.e.

(a+d)+(-a+d) = 120 + 60

⇒a + d - a + d = 180

⇒ 2d = 180

d =90

So,

NOw, substituting this value in maximum blood pressure,

i.e. (a + d) = 120

a + 90 =120

a = 30

we have time period = 10 minutes,

So,

2Π/b = 10

⇒ b = Π/5

So,

Count is started at 0.

So, c = 0,

Putting the above value,

f(x) = a sin(bx + c) +d

⇒f(x) = 30 sin(Πx/5 + 0) +90

⇒f(x) = 30 sin(Πx/5) +90

Therefore, the sine function that models the person’s blood pressure as a function of time (in minutes) will be f(x) = 30 sin(Πx/5) + 90.
