1. how do the graphs of y= 1/x and y=3/x - 4 compare?

a. compared to the graph of y=1/x, the graph of y=3/x-4 is a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 and a translation of 4 units left.
b. compared to the graph of y=1/x, the graph of y=3/x-4 is a vertical shrink by a factor of 3 and a translation of 4 units up.
c. compared to the graph of y=1/x, the graph of y=3/x-4 is a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 and a translation of 4 units down.
