Here is a graph of "well-being":

Consider three cycles of the human condition

The total well-being is a sum of the three cycles:

            y    =    A1 sin k1 x   +   A2 sin k2 x   +   A3 sin k3 x

where    k1 = 2p / 15     k2 = 2p / 10     k3 = 2p / 7.5

and A1, A2, A3 are amplitudes of the corresponding cycles.

Change the values of the amplitudes and observe the change in the graph.
