A buoy floating in the ocean is bobbing in simple harmonic motion with period 5 seconds and amplitude 7 ft. Its displacement d from sea level at time t=0 seconds is 0 ft, and initially it moves upward. (Note that upward is the positive direction.) Give the equation modeling the displacement d as a function of time t.
