Answer

$Period = \frac{2\pi}{\frac{\pi}{3}} = 6$ $Horizontal\ shift = –\frac{\frac{\pi}{3}}{\frac{\pi}{3}} = –1$ Negative shift meaning towards left $Phase = \frac{\pi}{3}$

Work Step by Step

We know, If C is any real number and $B> 0$, then the graphs of $y = \sin(Bx+C)$ and $y = \cos (Bx+C)$ will have $Period = \frac{2\pi}{B}$ $Horizontal\ shift =– \frac{C}{B}$ $Phase = C$ so for $y = \cos (\frac{\pi}{3}x +\frac{\pi}{3})$ $Period = \frac{2\pi}{\frac{\pi}{3}} = 6$ $Horizontal \ shift =– \frac{\frac{\pi}{3}}{\frac{\pi}{3}} = –1$ Negative shift meaning towards left $Phase = \frac{\pi}{3}$
