What are A and B here exactly?

If A and B are constants, then why is the t factor encased in parenthesis? I'd expect it to look like this:

p-B*t*sin(.....

if it were a constant. The fact that it looks like A(t) makes me think that A and B are in fact functions.

Where did you get the original equations from?

I showed how to write a formula to get any result {x, y}. And what is needed to use the multiplication sign.

Thanks guys - turns out I wasn't using the correct syntax in the expression editor. David, A and B were indeed both time-based functions, my apologies for the confusion. Thank you both for your help!
