Question

Which transformations are needed to change the parent some function to the sine function below?

Answer 1

Beginning with the function y = sin x, which would have range from -1 to 1 and period of 2pi:
Vertical compression of 1/2 compresses the range from -1/2 to 1/2
Phase shift of pi/2 to the left
Horizontal stretch to a period of 4pi, as the crests are at -4pi, 0, 4pi
Vertical shift of 1 unit up moves the range to 1/2 to 3/2
So the first choice looks like a good answer.

Answer 2

The first choice is the answer:
Solution:the function y = sin x, which would have range from -1 to 1 and period of 2pi:
