As below.

Explanation:

Standard form of a sine function is y = A sin (Bx - C) + Dy=Asin(BxC)+D

"Given " y = sin (3x - pi/3)Given y=sin(3xπ3)

A = 1, B = 3, C = pi/3, D = 0A=1,B=3,C=π3,D=0

Important points to graph are Amplitude, Period, Phase Shift and Vertical Shift.

Amplitude = |A| = 1Amplitude=|A|=1

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

"Phase Shift " = -C / B = -9pi/3) / 3 = -pi/9, color(red)((pi/9) " to the LEFT"

"Vertical Shift " = D = 0

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