Answer by MathLover1(20850) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
As you can see, the function on the graph is a hyperbola, and have two asymptotes.
The reciprocal of a linear function has two asymptotes: one vertical, and one horizontal.
So, this is the graph of a reciprocal function of a linear function.

The vertical asymptote occurs for the value of that causes the denominator to equal zero.
in your case we see from the graph that vertical asymptote is at , horizontal asymptote is at

the equation of the reciprocal function is:

your function is reciprocal of a linear function
