What are the period and phase shift in the function y=4sin(3X+Pie/4)-2?

[Ry122]

In the function
y=4sin(3X+Pie/4)-2
what determines the period and phase shift?
I know that 4=Amplitude
The answer in the back of the textbook says
Period=2pie/3
Phase Shift=-pie/12

standard form:
A\sin (kx+\phi)
period is given by 2\pi/k

 

[sutupidmath]

standard form:
A\sin (kx+\phi)
period is given by 2\pi/k

Yeah but i think it is better to do it this way, because not always you can immediately determine the period of a function based on that standard form. I think it is better to first know how to come up to that standard form.

so how do we know whether a function is periodic or not?

f(x+T)=f(x), where T is the period.
so after you substitute these values you will be able to find the period of that function, which is the same as ry122 said on his op.
