What are the common mistakes in Amplitude, period, and related graphs?

When a pupil makes one of these on Revision Workshop, the marking engine names the mistake and explains it, instead of just marking the answer wrong.

• Assumes a horizontal scaling by a fraction less than 1 compresses a graph the way multiplying by a value greater than 1 would, instead of correctly stretching it

  Multiplying $x$ by a fraction less than $1$ (i.e. dividing by $2$) STRETCHES the graph horizontally, not compresses it - the period increases from $360^\circ$
