Answer by Edwin McCravy(20055)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
xy = -12

Solve for y:



It has a vertical asymptote at x=0 (the y-axis)
It has a horizontal asymptote at y=0 (the x-axis)

Make a table of values:

  x|y
-12|1
 -8|1.5
 -6|2
 -4|3
 -3|4
 -2|6
 -1|12
 1|-12
 2|-6
 3|-4
 4|-3
 5|-2.4
 6|-2
 8|-1.5
10|-1.2
12|-1

Plot those and connect them:
