SOLUTION: When I am graphing the form y=(a/x-h)+k,how do I find points to plot on the graph?

Question 818917: When I am graphing the form y=(a/x-h)+k,how do I find points to plot on the graph?

Pick any x value and compute the corresponding y value; do this for several x values and plot the points, (x,y); draw the curve that connects the points.
That function is a rational function. You might be interested in behavior of y as x goes increasingly lesser and as x goes increasingly greater, and as x approaches zero from the left and the right.

Note, that function appears to be a hyperbola. First try to understand y=1/x

Are you sure that is exactly the kind of equation you want?
