Question

Help?. . What is the equation of the function y=5/x translated 4 units to the left and 3 units up?. . I don't even know where to start to do this, a little confused on the process to calculate?

Answer 1

It is y=5/(x+4)+3.

Answer 2

y = 5/x
If you want to shift the function 4 units left, you can add 4 to the x-value in the parent function:
y = 5 / ( x + 4 )
After that, you can add 3 to your function to shift it up 3 units.
y = 5 /( x + 4 ) + 3 ( the final equation )
