Answer:

D, y = cos(x -π/2)

Explanation:

When the cosine function is shifted right by π/2 units, it looks like the sine function. That is what we have here. To shift f(x) to the right, replace x by x-(amount of shift). Here, this means the graph is described by ...

y = 2cos(x -π/2)

_____

The vertical scale factor is 2 on the graph and in all answer choices.
