Answer:

The amplitude changes from 1 to 3

The period is unchanged

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the function


y=\sin x

is transformed to


v=3\sin x

We want to know how the amplitude and period change.

Consider the transformation:


y=a\sin \mleft(bx+c\mright)+d

Where a is the amplitude

Period is:


(2\pi)/(b)

The amplitude changes from 1 to 3

The period is unchanged
