A signal processing engineer is analyzing a sound wave represented by the function $y = f(t)$, where $t$ is time in seconds and $y$ represents the amplitude of the wave. The engineer needs to manipulate the sound wave for a specific application.
a. The engineer first applies a transformation to compress the sound wave horizontally by a factor of 2 and reflect it across the y-axis. Then, the transformed wave is amplified by a factor of 3 and shifted upwards by 1 unit. Determine the equation of the transformed sound wave in terms of $f(t)$.
