Exam points

  • Map key coordinates under transformations such as y = f(x − π/6) or y = −1/2f(x).
  • Sketch transformed graphs and label the new positions of stated points.
  • Use horizontal or vertical scale factors to adjust bounded areas from a previous result.

P1.1.12 - Effect of simple question 1

[Maximum number: 3]

On a separate diagram, sketch the curve with equation

y=kx+kk>0x0y=-\frac{k}{x}+k \quad k>0 \quad x \neq 0

stating the coordinates of the point of intersection with the x-axis and, in terms of k, the equation of the horizontal asymptote.
