ANSWER

d. The amplitude is 2

period:


(2\pi)/(3)

Step-by-step explanation

The given function is


f(t) = - 2 \cos(3t)

This function is of the form,

f(t) = a cos(bt)

The amplitude of this function is |a|

where a=-2


| - 2| = 2

The period of this function is given by,


T= (2\pi)/(b)

But b=3,


T= (2\pi)/(3)

Option D is correct.
