The graph will look like this:

Explanation:

It is actually a simple problem.
Since #x# is being multiplied by #sinpi#, we will have a straight line.

So let's see what #sinpi# is.
You can use your unit circle definition to find out that #sinpi=0#.

This means that for any given value of #x#, #y=0#. Therefore, we have a line with a slope of #0# that goes across the x-axis.
