Linear to reciprocal.
- Find the x intercept. this becomes your VA.
- Find invariant points. these are when 1 = 1, and 1 = -1.
- As y gets larger, reciprocal gets smaller. As y gets smaller, reciprocal gets larger.
High Low
(7,10) → (7,1/10) (-3.1,-0.1) → (-3.1, -10) Higher Y values become lower X values, in a reciprocal function Lower Y values become higher Y values in a reciprocal function
Negative/Positive Reciprocal Function
Note that a positive reciprocal. P(x)/Q(x) looks like this: A negative looks like this:
