how to graph y=2sin 1/3 x

OpenStudy (vanz):

\[y=2\sin \frac{ 1 }{ 3 }x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, there's a horizontal expansion by a factor of 3 and a vertical expansion by a factor of 2. If you can draw \(y=\sin x\), you just need to expand in these directions.

OpenStudy (vanz):

so the amplitude is 2, the vertical shift would be... 3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There are no transformations/'shifts' here. That only happens when you're adding/subtracting. The amplitude is 2, yes, and the graph should be stretched horizontally by 3. |dw:1350794844654:dw|
