How do you graph y=2sin(1/2x)?

The graph is inserted. The sine wave amplitude is 2 and the period is 4pi. One full wave is in-between [-2pi, 0] and [0, 2pi]]

Explanation:

The period is (2pi)/(1/2) =4pi, for one full wave.

For visual effect, choose one period as ^x in [-2pi, 2pi].

The ends of this part are [-2pi, 0] and [0, 2pi]

y ranges between +-(amplitude)=+-2.
