Answer:
A general sinusoidal equation is:
y = A*sin(w*x + p) + M
where:
A is the amplitude
w is the angular frequency
p is the phase shift
M is the midline.
Now, we know that:
Amplitude must be 6, so A = 6
period is 2*pi/3
Remember that the frequency is the inverse of the period, then:
f = 1/T
f = 1/(2*pi/3) = 3/(2*pi)
And the angular frequency is 2*pi times the normal frequency, then:
w = 2*pi*f = 2*pi*(3/2*pi) = 3
w = 3
Here we not have information about the midline, so M = 0.
And we know that the phase shift is one unit to the left.
Remember horizontal translations:
for a function f(x), an horizontal translation of N units is written as:
g(x) = f(x + N)
if N > 0, then the translation is to the left
if N < 0 , then the translation is to the right,
Here we know that the phase shift is to the left, so p must be positive, and we know that the shift is 1 unit to the left, then:
p = +1
Replacing these in the equation we get:
y = 6*sin(3*x + 1) + 0
y = 6*sin(3*x + 1)
