@phi i think its like a vertical shift to the left 6 and a horizontal shrink by 5.. is that right?

Answer 15

First look at y = 1/x

if x is 0 then y= 1/0 which is undefined. But think like this: instead of 0, let x be a tiny number like 1/100000
when we divide 1/ (1/100000) we get 100000 (a big number)

the point is as you get close to x=0 y gets really big

when x=1, y =1/1 = 1
when x is really big y = 1/10000 which is close to 0

so here are 3 points
(0, infinity), (1,1), and (infinity, 0)

it looks like this
