As below.

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

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

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

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

$Amplitude = |A| = 1$

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

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

$"Vertical Shift " = D = 0$

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