Let P = (x,y) be a point on the graph of y = 1/x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and....?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's all

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lolwut

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ur looking for P?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there's an infinite number of P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let P = (x,y) be a point on the graph of y = 1/x Express the distance d from P to the origin as a function of x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here is the full problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I understand if this is too hard for you, this is for my math analysis class (sophomore year) highschool

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ur not given P?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im a junior in calculus BC

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They let you choose point P, Let P = (x,y)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and then you have to find the distance from that from the origin(0,0)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have no idea how to do this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let P = to (2, 0.5) then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then use the distance formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's all? I don't have to use any other formulas

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Damn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u know the distance formula right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea I remember it vaguely, i'll look for it

OpenStudy (anonymous):
