Question 4

A sound wave is sampled at intervals of 0.25 seconds. The table below shows the denary amplitude values recorded for five consecutive samples:

Table 1: Sound Sample Data

Sample numberTime (seconds)Amplitude (Denary Value)
10.254
20.5012
30.7515
41.009
51.253

Complete the representation of this digital sound wave on the grid below by plotting the correct digital steps for each sample point.

A grid with 'Time (s)' on the horizontal X-axis ranging from 0.0 to 1.50 with major gridlines every 0.25 seconds, and 'Amplitude' on the vertical Y-axis ranging from 0 to 15 with gridlines for each integer value.
