a.
To graph: The parent reciprocal function
Given information:
The given function is
Graph:
Now consider the given function:
Press the MODE button in the calculator and highlight the word DOT.
Press the
Press GRAPH button in the calculator.
The graph of the function is
:
Interpretation: The graph of the function
b.
To state: Both the negative and positive values of x . Also describe what happens to the y -values as x approaches zero.
If x approaches to zero from right, then the y values are approaching to
Given information:
The given statement says to state the negative and positive values of x and describe what happens to the y -values as x approaches zero.
Explanation:
Consider the graph from part (a),
It can be seen from the graph that as x approaches to zero from right, then the y values are approaching to
Similarly, as x approaches to zero from the left, y values are approaching to
c.
To state: What happens to the values of y as x increases and x decreases.
If x increases, the values of y approaches to 0 and x decreases values of y approaches to 0.
Given information:
The given statement says to what happens to the values of y as x increases and x decreases.
Explanation:
Consider the graph from part (a),
It can be seen from the graph that as x increases the y values are approaching to 0.
Similarly, as x decreases, y values are approaching to 0.
Therefore, as
