Question

What would the equation be if y=1/x was translated up 2 units and reflected over the X axis

Answer 1

To translate a function up 2 units, you have to add 2:

`y=\frac{1}[x}\mapsto y=(1)/(x)+2 = (1+2x)/(x)`

To reflect a function over the x axis, you have to change its sign:

`y=(1+2x)/(x)\mapsto y = -(1+2x)/(x)`
