Im going with B, is that correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cant see the sine curve

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Amplitude is the first number in front of the y=asin(x) (it's a) this number indicates how much of a vertical stretch or shrink the orgitnal sine curve does

Sorr,y, I thought I posted it.

Normally the sine curve reches a max/min of 1 but this reaches 4 so all you have to do is 4/1=4 (the amplitude) Let me know if you need anything else, Sine curves are rather taunting
