Trig Graph

I'm doing online review for a calculus class in college, and for the life of me I can't remember how to derive the formula from a trigonometric graph that's not written with the x-axis in radian values of pi.

If someone could show me a step by step solution to this problem, I'd be grateful.
 
\(\displaystyle Here \ is \ the \ graph \ of \ 4sin\bigg(2t-\frac{\pi}{12}\bigg)-3, \ close \ but \ no \ cigar?\)

I'm sure the error is in the system, not in your solution - thank you for attempting it though. I'll just have to bite the bullet. I can accept an 87 or so percent on this one assignment.

You told us that this exercise is a review for calculus. :?

If the graph were properly labeled, you could determine the answer to this "assignment" by simply using Real numbers.

For example, it appears that the point (1.6, 1) is a local maximum on the graph. But who knows whether or not x = 1.6 there because the labels at -6 and 6 do not match the grid lines.

The hint states what you may do, but it doesn't say that you must. Got the message? 8-)
