Draw the graph of the reciprocal function `f(x) = 1/x`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Clearly, ` f(x) = 1/x `l is not defined , at x=0. some points on the graph are (1,1) ,(-1,-1) , (1/2,2),(2,1/2), (-1/2, -2), (-2, -1/2) , ( 1/3,3) , (-1/3,-3) , (3,1/3), etc.
Joining these points, we get the required graph since ` f(x) = 1/x` is an odd funcation , it is symmetrical about the origin.
