Question

I've been trying to figure this out for hours. My brain is not working: Graph the equation xy+9=0.

Answer 1

Subtracting 9 from each side,
\[\Large\rm xy=-9\]Dividing by x,\[\Large\rm y=-\frac{9}{x}\]Do you remember what the graph of \(\Large\rm y=\dfrac{1}{x}\) looks like?

Answer 2

I don't, honestly. I am really sucking at math right now

Answer 3

Thank you so much for helping me

Answer 4

1/x is the boomerang shape in the `upper right` and `lower left`.See how x cannot equal 0?
There is an asymptote at x=0
