As below.

Explanation:

y = 5 csc (3x - 3pi) - 5

Standard form of cosecant function is y = A csc(Bx - C) + D

A = 5, B = 3, C = 3 pi, D = -5

Amplitude = |A| = "NONE for cosecant function"

"Period " = (2pi) / |B| = (2pi) / 3

"Phase Shift " = -C / B = (3pi) / 3 = pi, " " pi " to the RIGHT"

"Vertical Shift " = D = -5

graph{5 csc(3x - 3 pi) - 5 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
