Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify two consecutive maximum points.
The graph shows two consecutive maximum points at \(x = 4\) and \(x = 20\).
Step 2: Calculate the period.
The period of a sinusoidal function is the horizontal distance between two consecutive maximum points (or two consecutive minimum points).
In this case, the period is \(20 - 4 = 16\).
