y = -1 + 3 sin 4x

Let's look at the equation of y = 3 sin 4x, which is of the form y = A sin Bx, where

the amplitude = |A|, and the period = (2pi)/B.

So that the amplitude of the graph of y = 3 sin 4x is |3| = 3, which tell us that the maximum value of y is 3 and the minimum value is -3, and the period is (2pi)/4 = pi/2, which tell us that each cycle is completed in pi/2 radians.

The graph of y = -1 + 3 sin 4x has the same amplitude and period as y = 3 sin 4x, and translates the graph of y = 3 sin 4x one unit down, so that the maximum value of y becomes 2 and the minimum value becomes -4.

How do you determine that the amplitude of y equals -2 sin x?

The amplitude of a function is half the distance between the maximum and minimum values. This is the absolute value of the number in front of the trig function. for example, y=Asin(x) or y= Acos(x) the absolute value of A is the amplitude. Therefore, the amplitude of y=-2sinx is 2

What is the maxima or minima for the line y equals mx plus c?

A straight line has no turning points and so no local maxima or minima. The line has a maximum at + infinity and a minimum at - infinity if m > 0 and conversely if m < 0. When m = 0, the line is horizontal and so has no maximum or minimum. ([Alternatively, every point on the line is simultaneously a maximum and a minimum.]
