Answer:

8

Explanation:

You want the period of a sinusoidal function that has a graph with peaks at x=1 and x=9.

Period

The period is the difference between x-values where the function repeats itself. Typically, we can determine the period from corresponding recognizable features of the graph.

Here, the graph has peaks at x=1 and x=9. The period is the difference between these x-values:

period = 9 - 1 = 8

The period of the function is 8 units.

Additional comment

In more formal terms, the period p of a function is the smallest value of p such that f(x -p) = f(p).
