Write an equation for the translation of y=4/x that has the asymptotes x=7 and y=6 Can anyone help me on this one?

|dw:1334200382011:dw| that's a picture of y=4/x. it's horizontal asymptote is y=0 and vertical one is x=0.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since you want to move the vertical asymptote 7 units over to the right, your denominator will then be x-7...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and since you want the horizontal asymptote to move up 6 units, just add 6 to the y-values... so your equation will be: y = 1/(x-7) + 6

Well explained. Thanks!
