What is the general equation of a sine function with an amplitude of 6, a period of StartFraction pi Over 4 EndFraction, and a horizontal shift of StartFraction pi Over 2 EndFraction? y = sine (8 (x minus StartFraction pi Over 2 EndFraction))
y = 8 sine (4 (x minus StartFraction pi Over 2 EndFraction))
y = 6 sine (8 (x minus StartFraction pi Over 2 EndFraction))
y = 6 sine (8 x) + StartFraction pi Over 2 EndFraction

C:

Step-by-step explanation:

Amplitude is changed by multiplying the entire trig function by a number, by default the amplitude is 1, so multiplying by 6 is necessary; eliminate A and B

Horizontal shift is going through the x axis, so it must be subtracted from the x value. This is only seen in choice C of the remaining answers.

Calculating the period isn't necessary because we already found the right answer but in case you need it in the future; the period is by default 2pi, to get to pi/4, it had to be 8 times smaller, so multiplying x and translations on x by 8 will get you the correct period.
