Answer:

[tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of the cosine function is

y = a cos(bx + c)

where a is the amplitude, period = [tex]\frac{2\pi }{b}[/tex] and

phase shift = - [tex]\frac{c}{b}[/tex]

here b = 3 and c = - [tex]\frac{3\pi }{4}[/tex], hence

phase shift = - [tex]\frac{-\frac{3\pi }{4} }{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex]
