The phases of the moon are periodic and repetitive. A new moon occurs when no moon is visible to an observer on Earth. During the first quarter, half of the side of the moon facing the Earth is visible. During a full moon the entire side of the moon is visible. During the last quarter the other half of the side of the moon facing Earth is visible.
The U. S. Naval Observatory lists the following dates for phases of the Moon in the year 2008.

Using the information above, plot the data points and produce a sine regression model for the data. Round a, b, c, and d to the nearest 0.001. Then use your model to predict how much of the moon will be visible 1 full year later, provided the sky is clear and assuming the year has 365 days. Give your answer as a percent.
a.
11% of the moon will be visible
b.
42% of the moon will be visible
c.
0% of the moon will be visible
d.
73% of the moon will be visible
