    This sine function has the form y = f (x) = a sin (bx + c), where |a| is the amplitude, b is the frequency, and c determines the phase shift.

    The period of this sine curve is 2 pi/b, or (in this problem) 2 pi / (1/2).

    The phase shift of this curve is - c/b, or - (pi/4) / (1/2). Simplify this.

    The amplitude is |-3|, or just 3.

    Draw a set of coordinate axes. Draw light horizontal lines through y=3 and y=-3. These are the max and min. values of this sine function.

    Plot the phase shift on your x-axis.

    Your sine function will begin at (phase shift value, 0) and continue for one period. Add the period to the phase shift value. Draw a sine curve beginning and ending at these two x-values.

    I encourage you to share your calculations and to sketch the graph described here. Then I could give you more specific feedback on your work. Good luck!
