Question

Which of the following is a key property of the reciprocal parent function?

A.) It is not a function

B.) It is in quadrants I and III

C.) I goes through the origin

D.) It is a parabola

 

Answer 1

Properties of inverse function:

1) reflection in line y = x and across origin

2) graph does not touch x­-axis: horizontal asymptote y=0

3) graph does not touch y-­axis: vertical asymptote x=0

4) It is a Hyperbola.

5) It is an odd function.

6) Graph is only in quadrants I and III.

So option B is correct.
