Last class we learned reciprocal functions. Reciprocal means fliped over. ex) a/b---->b/a. We learned that a reciprocal function is in which the numerator and denominator switch places. Then we learned how to graph it. The graph of a reciprocal function, compared to its orig. function, is curved and has one or more asymptotes along the x axis. The asymptote of the reciprocal function is found where the function crosses over the x axis. If the orig. function decreases, the reciprocal function will increase. We leanred this as: "GREATERING" and "LESSERING".
