## sue101 2 years ago his graph of a function is a translation of y = 4/x . What is an equation for the function?

is this a completer question???

It would be most helpful if you would post the entire question.

4. sue101

5. Mertsj

yes. I'm still trying to figure out what the question is.

6. Mertsj

Consider the hyperbola y = 4/x If you change it to y = 4/(x+1) that moves the center 1 space to the left. If you change it to y = 4 (x-1) that moves the center 1 space to the right.

7. Mertsj

If you change it to: $y=\frac{4}{x} +1$ that moves the center one space up.

8. Mertsj

If you change it to $y=\frac{4}{x}-1$ that moves the center one space down

9. Mertsj

So you need to figure out where the center of the hyperbola is and then you will know how it has been moved from (0,))

i really dnt know non of thsi stuff do u know which one of the answers it would be? @Mertsj

11. Mertsj

The center of the hyperbola shown in the picture is (-6,2) Choose the equation with that center. And you really do need to learn this stuff.

12. sue101

ok. I think its B. @Mertsj

13. Mertsj

Choice b has been moved left 2 and down 6. so do you think that's what happened in the picture?

14. sue101

no I think left 6 and down 2

15. sue101

So D?

16. sue101

@Mertsj

17. Mertsj

How is it down 2?

18. sue101

left 6 up 2

19. sue101

now im confused so its not B or D so last options are A and C... I don't think its A

20. Mertsj

Yes. Left 6 and up 2 so which equation is that?

21. Mertsj

Well then, if it is not A, B or D which one is it?

22. sue101

C lol

23. sue101

But is that correct?

24. Mertsj

Yes.

25. sue101

awesome thank you!!! <3
