Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:

Amplitutde:

Normally for sinx amplitude is 2 (1 +1). In the case when it is half sine amplitude is halved, therefore 0.5 +0.5 = 1 Paramers alpha = 2x does not matter because it only stretches the graph horizontally.
Answer:
1.
2. 
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The area of a hexagon is A = 
Here our a is 4, so plugging in 4 to our equation gives
which simplifies to 
2. The area of an octagon is 
Here our r is 9, so plugging in 9 to our equation gives
which simplifies to 
6.98 divide it by 1.86= 3.75268...
