Answer

$Amplitude = \frac{1}{2}$ $Period = \frac{2\pi}{3}$ $Horizontal\ shift = (–\frac{\pi}{3})$ i.e left shift $\frac{\pi}{3}$ $Vertical\ shift = \frac{3}{2}$ ($\frac{3}{2} $units shift upward) $Phase = \pi$

Work Step by Step

If C is any real number and $B> 0$, then the graphs of $y = k + A\sin(Bx+C)$ and $y = k + A\cos (Bx+C)$ will have $Amplitude = |A|$ $Period = \frac{2\pi}{B}$ $Horizontal\ shift = –\frac{C}{B}$ $Vertical\ shift = k$ $Phase = C$ so for $y = \frac{3}{2} - \frac{1}{2}\sin (3x + \pi )$ $Amplitude = |-\frac{1}{2}| = \frac{1}{2}$ $Period = \frac{2\pi}{3}$ $Horizontal\ shift = (–\frac{\pi}{3})$ i.e left shift $\frac{\pi}{3}$ $Vertical\ shift = \frac{3}{2}$ ($\frac{3}{2}$ units shift upward) $Phase = \pi$
