graph{1+sin(1/2x) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

$Sin(x)$ is the original
$sin(x)+1$ moves it up one so every y value is moved up 1

$sin(1/2x)$ effects the period and it doubles the period of the sine curve from being $2pi$ to $4pi$

As the period $=(2pi)/B$

With B being $Asin(B(x-C))+D$ or in this case $1/2$

How do you graph y=1+sin(1/2x) y=1+sin(1/2x)?
