Question 673831: I need help on a few questions I am having a hard time understanding. It said five questions per say and I think I am just going to write them all on one e-mail. My questions are based on how to even come about getting a graph when I do not know where to start on the problems I don't know how to solve them or anything. The equations I have are below.
1. f(x)=1/x+1, I am said to graph and show my work on how to get this answer.
2. f(x) = 1/x-2(+1)
3. f(x) = 2/x(-3)
4. f(x)= 1/x-4(+3)
and lastly
5. f(x)= 1/x+5 (+2)
Like I said before my teacher had not even told me on how to go about this, all I know is I am supposed to make a x and y table and fill it out, but i have no idea on how to fill it out. I am really lost and scared of failing my class. Please help!

Hi,
IF you mean: 1%2F%28x%2B1%29+,1%2F%28x-2%29+%2B+1, 2%2Fx+-+3 & +1%2F%28x%2B5%29+%2B+2
Those graphs can be arrived at by 'Shifting' the Green'parent graph' of 1%2Fx
1%2F%28x%2B1%29+ Blue ||Shift green one to the left

1%2F%28x-2%29+%2B+1Blue ||Shift green one Up and 2 to the right

2%2Fx+-+3 Blue

+1%2F%28x%2B5%29+%2B+2Blue ||Shift green 2 Up and 5 to the left
