Calculators TI-89 Titanium graphing problem

AI Thread Summary
The issue arises from the incorrect interpretation of the sine function's equation. The expression y2=5+4*sin(pi/12)(x+10) is not being graphed as a sine wave due to the way it is structured. The multiplication of pi/12 with (x+10) is leading to a linear transformation rather than a periodic sine wave. To achieve the expected sine wave, the equation should be formatted correctly, ensuring that the sine function is applied to the entire expression (x+10) rather than just multiplied by it. This misunderstanding is causing the graph to appear as a line instead of the anticipated wave. Adjusting the equation to properly encapsulate the sine function will yield the correct sinusoidal graph.

Hi all, found this forum while looking for a solution to this problem:

When I graph a y1=sin(x) I get the sin wave you would expect.

but...

When I graph y2=5+4*sin(pi/12)(x+10) I get a line instead of a wave?

What gives? I'm in radian, I reset my factory defaults... Am I entering this wrong? Shouldn't that give you a sin wave?

Thanks for your help!

In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity. 1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
