The depth d in feet of the water in a bay at is given by d(t) = 3/2 sin (5πt/31) + 23 where t is time. Graph the depth of the water as a function of time. What is the maximum depth of the water to the nearest tenth of a foot? (Enter only the number.)

The depth d in feet of the water in a bay at is given by d(t) = 3/2 sin (5πt/31) + 23 where t is time. Graph the depth of the water as a function of time. What is the maximum depth of the water to the nearest tenth of a foot? (Enter only the number.)
since the maximum of sin(x) is 1, d(t) achieves a maximum of 3/2 + 23.
