Solve the problem.
-Wildlife management personnel use predator-prey equations to model the populations of certain predators and
their prey in the wild. Suppose the population M of a predator after t months is given by $$M = 750 + 125 \sin \frac { \pi } { 6 } t$$ while the population N of its primary prey is given by $$N = 12,250 + 3050 \cos \frac { \pi } { 6 } t$$ Find the period for each of these functions.
