Week 13 – Graphing Reciprocal Quadratic Functions.

Last week we learned about how to graph reciprocal functions.

The steps to solve.

1.) Graph the parabola

2.) Locate the invariant points

3.) Find the asymptotes

 

Three types of Quadratics

Positive Slope, Positive y-intercept

 

It never touches (0,0)

so no invariant points

 

Positive slope (can be negative), y-intercept=0

The asymptotes are touching the parabola

Positive or Negative Slope, opposite y-intercept
