Question

If the parent function is y = 1/x, describe the change in the equation y = - 1/x-1 - 10

A. Reflected across the x-axis, moves 1 unit to the right, and 10 units up.

B. Moves 1 unit to the right and 10 units down.

C. Reflected across the x-axis, moves 1 unit to the right, and 10 units down.

D. Reflected across the x-axis, moves 1 unit to the left, and 10 units down.

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

Firstly, we have 1/x as the parent function. 1/x-1 describes the graph of 1/x to shift 1 unit right. -1/x-1, states that it is reflected across the x-axis. And -1/x-1 -10 states that it is shifted 10 units down.
