If it asks you for a y value for a given x value, all you have to do is plug it in.
So for ,
when x = -2, y = 1/(-2-1) = 1/(-3) = -1/3
when x = -1, y = 1/(-1-1) = 1/(-2) = -1/2
when x = 0, y = 1/(0-1) = 1/(-1) = -1
when x = 1, y = 1/(1-1) = 1/0 <--undefined. Cannot divide by zero.
when x = 2, y = 1/(2-1) = 1/1 = 1
when x = 3, y = 1/(3-1) = 1/2

Here is the graph for .

Notice that there is an asymptote at x = 1, since it makes the denominator equal to zero, and therefore the function is undefined at this point. The graph should indicate a DOTTED line at x = 1. You'll have to make that adjustment to what is graphed on algebra.com and on graphing calculators.
