    The graph of y=sin⁡xy = \sin x is transformed into the graph of y=g(x)y = g(x) by the following sequence of transformations: a vertical stretch with scale factor 3, then a horizontal stretch with scale factor 12\frac{1}{2}, then a translation of π3\frac{\pi}{3} units in the positive xx-direction, then a translation of 1 unit in the negative yy-direction.

    A Ferris wheel has a diameter of 40 m and its centre is 22 m above the ground. It rotates at a constant speed and completes one revolution every 10 minutes. At time t=0t = 0 minutes, seat P is at the lowest point of the wheel. The height of P above the ground, hh metres, is modelled by h(t)=acos⁡(bt)+dh(t) = a\cos(bt) + d, where a,b,d∈Ra, b, d \in \mathbb{R} and b>0b > 0.
    (a)
    Find the values of aa, bb and dd, and hence write down h(t)h(t).
    [6 marks]
    (b)
    (i) Show that P is 32 m above the ground when t=103t = \frac{10}{3}.
    (ii) Hence find the length of time, in minutes and seconds, during each revolution for which P is more than 32 m above the ground.
