I can help — but I need one clarification: is the function
- f(x) = 4·sin(5x) + 1, or
- f(x) = 4·sin(5x^2) + 1, or
- something else (for example 4·sin(5x − 2) + 1 or 4·sin(5x/2) + 1)?

If you can paste or upload the four graph images (or describe them), I’ll pick the correct one. Meanwhile, here are the quick tests you can use to choose the right graph depending on the interpretation:

If f(x) = 4 sin(5x) + 1:
- Amplitude = 4 → maximum value 1 + 4 = 5, minimum value 1 − 4 = −3.
- Midline y = 1.
- Period = 2π/5. So one full cycle occurs over length 2π/5 on the x‑axis.
- At x = 0, f(0) = 1 (graph crosses midline going upward).

If f(x) = 4 sin(5x^2) + 1:
- Vertical shift and amplitude are the same (midline y = 1, range [−3,5]), but the oscillation is not uniform: cycles get compressed as |x| increases (frequency increases with x). The spacing between peaks is not constant.

Tell me which function you meant or paste the images and I’ll pick the correct graph.
